If tomorrow didn’t come

Today’s a day like any day

Did I walk past a bird and forget to notice its song

Did I worry about something meaningless that’s faded away, and now gone

Did I forget to let my parents know

I love them more now, than ever before

Did I forget to tell my lover “I love you”

before I closed the door

Did I forget to tell my sisters how much they mean to me

All our childhood memories

That created the man I became to be

Did I forget to tell grandma how much she meant

Was it too late when I came through the door, to see her time clock was spent

What if tomorrow didn’t arrive

Would I have spent all my “I love you’s”

Or have a stockpile inside

Every second, of every day this story plays out

Have you expressed your love or sadly held out

If tomorrow didn’t come, what would you do?

Do it today, as the hourglass may be staring at you
