Don’t Wait

DON’T WAIT UNTIL TOMORROW OR UNTIL I’M GONE TO SAY SWEET THINGS ABOUT ME

I WOULD RATHER HEAR ONE KIND WORD SAID TODAY THAN HAVE A BOOK FULL READ WHEN I AM DEAD

DON’T WAIT UNTIL I’M GONE AND GIVE ME A TRUCK LOAD OF FLOWERS OR SHOWERS OF LOVE THAT I CANNOT SEE
OR FEEL

I WOULD RATHER HAVEONE LITTLE ROSE NOW WHILE MY NOSE CAN SMELL IT, AND ONE KIND WORD, WHILE I CAN
HEAR IT

HOW MUCH SWEETER WOULD LIFE BE HOW MUCH MORE WOULD ONE GIVE OR HOW MUCH LONGER WOULD ONE LIVE
IF ONLY SOME KINDNESS, LOVE AND APPRECIATION WERE SHOWN TODAY

DON’T WAIT UNTIL TOMORROW FOR IT MAY BE TOO LATE BECAUSE…..
TOMORROW JUST ISN’T PROMISED TO ANY OF US
