As I sit in quiet silence
My mind just goes astray
I know there's more that I can do
Making this a better day.

Let me take note of a few things
That I have said or done to bring
Precious words like I love you
For family makes my heart sing

I know it would because you see
Just what does tomorrow hold?
Please say I'm thinking of you
It may be the last time they are told.

Our friends are also important
Let's not let them slip by
It only takes a minute
To send each a kindly Hi!

The unimportant things we do
The thoughtless things we say
Lets analyze each one of them
Make this a happier day.

For we must stop and realize
Tomorrow we may never see
Don't leave this earth with a heavy heart
When loving words set you free.
