If I Had Just One Day Left To Live

If I had just one day left to live
I would like to spend it peacefully
walking along the beach with 
the waves washing up on my 
feet, sitting on the porch 
swinging with my mother
remembering all of the good
times we had together and what 
it is going to be like when we
meet again, what a halleujah
day that will be, so if I only 
had just one day left to live that 
would be enough for me
