I Needed Just One More Second

If every time we... Watched a movie Swam in the river Hung out with the kids Talked at work Went out to eat Got stuck in traffic Raced on the highway Hugged Bumped elbows in the kitchen Griped about our ex's Played video games Figuring out why were here Got to see my daughter run and jump into your arms Watched you try to out burb my other daughter Listen to you swear my couch is too short Spoke like Daffy Duck We would have had many more hours together. Now you are gone. I just needed one more second... May God be with you now.
