If Tomorrow Never Comes

Although I am with my children twenty four hours a day, I don't think I spend enough time with them. I am talking about quality time, rather than quantity time. If tomorrow never comes, will they know how much I love them? I want to leave a legacy. How will

they remember me? Nicole Noredeman's Legacy
would have been perfect for this slideshow. Realizing that I do not have a copy of the song, I decided to use Garth Brookes' "If Tomorrow Never Comes" instead. Here's my version: Sometimes late at night I watch them sleeping They're lost in their peaceful dreams I walk to my bedroom in the dark And the thought crosses my mind If I never wake up in the morning Would they ever doubt the way I feel About them in my heart. If tomorrow never comes Will they know how much I loved them Did I try in every way to show them very day That they are my precious gifts from above And if my time on earth were through And they must face the world without me Is the love I gave them in the past Gonna be enough to last If tomorrow never comes. 'Cause I've lost loved ones in my life Who never knew how much I loved them Now I live with the regret That my true feelings for them never revealed So I made a promise to myself To say each day how much my kids means to me To avoid that circumstance Where there's no second chance to tell them how I feel. If tomorrow never comes Will they know how much I loved them Did I try in every way to show them every day That they're my precious gifts from above And if my time on earth were through And they must face the world without me Is the love I gave them in the past Gonna be enough to last If tomorrow never comes. So tell that someone that you love Just what's you're thinking of If tomorrow never comes.
