There's no guarantee that we'll be here tomorrow
At any moment dear ones could be plunged into sorrow
Do not adjourn putting your feelings on display
Open your heart and your mouth then say...
.
Those three words that may warm someone from within
Whether they're your parent, sibling, life partner, or friend
Those three words may morph a frown into a smile
Cause them to float through the air a country mile
.
If you should miss the chance, should you forget
You very well might drown in unmitigated regret
Wishing that you could reverse the clock
Discover the key to that emotional padlock
.
Do not allow embarrassment to shut your mouth
Do not allow timidity to cause those words to fly south
Do not allow vexation to block your heart
Do not allow procrastination to get a head start
.
Now is the time and the time is now
If you're stumped, this is how
It's as simple as tying one's shoe
Part your lips and push these words through...
.
