If Tomorrow Never Comes.

If today was your last, how would you spend it?

Would you reflect on your life and the choices you’ve regretted?

Would you tell your mother you love her for the very last time? 

Tell her you’re sorry for everything and put all angst aside?

Would you tell your dad he was a role model, that he was your hero?

That you always respected him even when it didn’t seem so?

Would you tell the one that got away

That you couldn’t live without them?

Even though you knew that the world was gonna end?

Would you lie to your child and say everything’s okay

When you knew the both of you were gonna die that day?

Maybe you’d adopt a child or give to the homeless,

Or adopt a home for a child who has less.

If you had a chance to wrong the person who wronged you,

Would you wrong them?

And give them the same pain you were put through?

Or do you feel that that is wrong even though it seems right

To wrong someone completely out of spite?

Would you rob a bank or steal the car of your dreams?

But would the glory really be as satisfying as it seems?

Would you go wild and crazy just because?

Or are you doing it because it’s what everyone else does?

Would you repent your sins and pray to God for penance?

And tell him that you want heaven to be your life sentence?

As far as I’m concerned, I wouldn’t change my ways

Because God judges your life, not what you do in a day. 

You could die in 5 days, 5 weeks or 5 months,

So live your life just a little for once.

Never have regrets or leave problems undone

Because you’ll never live it down if tomorrow never comes.
