Should tomorrow not arrive

Should tomorrow not arrive

 

If the day comes, and I’m not in it,

Something that I, want you all to know,

Life is never so infinite,

When our time is up, we all have to go,

 

I wish I could have told you, in, oh so many words,

Yet the right words, seemed to avoid my thinking,

The wrong words, were always heard,

Left me feeling, my heart was sinking,

 

So many times, I tried to show,

The love I felt for you, one and all,

My heart, and head, fought too, and fro,

I lived my life with many a fall,

 

The tools I needed, were never taught,

By those that should have, when I was young,

All those times, when we just fought,

Sat alone, my head I hung,

 

My confidence was never high,

At times, I knew not, what I’d do,

Yet, my best I knew I’d try,

For I had great love, for all of you,

 

You may not have seen, this love I felt,

You all, mean the world, to me,

Alone some nights, on knees I knelt,

Prayed the lord, would make ye see,

 

And help you all to understand,

A better life, than I once had,

Which, for me, was not so grand,

I’ll never be perfect, but for you all, I am glad,

 

That, should tomorrow, not arrive for me,

And ye should wake don’t be forlorn,

As ye think back, I pray ye’ll see,

I love ye all, from the day ye were born.
