Don'T Think That There's Tomorrow

On his way to work this morning His truck lost to a big rig He was running late and didn't take The time to kiss his wife or his kids And what seemed like a bad dream to them all Was now reality So don't think that there's tomorrow When we're not promised today Many who have opened eyes Have failed to see night fall on that day Nothing is a given in this life So be sure to say goodbye When they cut him from his truck They found clenched within his hands A picture of the four of them On some beach out in the sand You could see the love in all their eyes But now you feel the pain inside their hearts So don't think that there's tomorrow When we're not promised today Many who have opened eyes Have failed to see night fall on that day Nothing is a given in this life So be sure to say goodbye My grandfather hated goodbyes So he always said so long And I remember at his funeral How a sick man stood strong To tell him one final time farewell Until we meet again So don't think that there's tomorrow When we're not promised today Many who have opened eyes Have failed to see night fall on that day Nothing is a given in this life So be sure to share your love It wasn't but a week or so That he'd also be called home So I had to go and honor him For the respect that he'd shown The measure of a man is in his actions Not only in his words So don't think that there's tomorrow Cause we're not promised today Many who have opened eyes Have failed to see night fall on that day Nothing is a given in this life So be sure to say goodbye
