Tell Them You Love Them
The number of times I think of you each day
Is immeasurable, my sweet sweet love
It's like trying to count the stars in the sky
Just know this my love, you are the reason I exist
Why I wake each morn with gladness in my heart
Joy in my soul, I have a serenity I've never before experienced
Words don't do justice for this feeling of love
This feeling of utter passion that's invaded my heart and soul
Oh joy, oh joy, what greater thrill
If I was to meet my maker tomorrow
I can honestly say, I have loved and been loved
After all is said and done, what greater thrill in life is there
Everything else is superficial
Because what I'll remember when my number is up
Are those dear souls who enriched my life
Who gave me a feeling of belonging
Who gave me a reason for it all
There may be many but those with the greatest impact are few
And you'll be remembered until my dying day
So while you're still here...
TELL THEM YOU LOVE THEM!!!
