Tell me now how you feel.
Do not wait for later days,
For only then may be too late.
Let me have every hug you have
All the smiles you can give
Spend the time you can with me today
T'would be sad if it be my last
Say all you need to now
For tomorrow may never come.

There would then be a wall of earth between us
Warm words etched in cold hard stone
A hug would be impossible...
Words so obsolete.
Not a gesture would be seen
Nor a voice could be heard.
A touch... a lifetime away.
So I say these words now to you...
Think of me how I was,
Not as I am now.
Think of me with laughter,
No tears shed here.
Say to me goodbye,
'Till we meet again later on,
For this is but a pause in time
Before we run into each other in heaven.

So tell me now that you love me,
All the hugs you can give,
Give me every smile that you can,
Spend the time with me you can today,
For tomorrow may never come.
