Tomorrow Never Comes ~ By Norma Cornett Marek
If I knew it would be the last time that Id see you fall asleep, I would tuck you in more tightly, and pray the Lord your soul to keep. If I knew it would be the last time, that I see you walk out the door, I would give you a hug and a kiss, and call you back for just one more. If I knew it would be the last time Id hear your voice lifted up in praise, I would tape each word and action, and play them back throughout my days . If I knew it would be the last time I would spare an extra minute or two, to stop and say "I love you" , Instead of assuming you know I do. So just in case tomorrow never comes , and today is all I get, Id like to say how much I love you, and I hope we never forget. Tomorrow is not promised to anyone, young or old alike, and today may be the last chance, you get to hold your loved one tight. So if youre waiting for tomorrow, why not do it today? For if tomorrow never comes, youll surely regret the day, that you didnt take that extra time , for a smik a hug or a kiss , and you were to busy to grant someone what turned out to be their one last wish. So hold your loved ones close today and whisper in their ear, tell them you love them very much and youll always hold them dear. Take time to say, "Im sorry, please forgive me, thank you or its OK" . And if tomorrow never comes, youll have no regrets about today.
The family would like to express their deepest gratitude for all the acts of kindness, love and prayers extended to us during this be reavement. May God bless you.
