Always Tomorrow
One day a man who lived a full life ascended to Heaven. When his close friend heard the news about his passing he sat quietly. He thought about the many accomplishments and deeds his friend had done. But more so, he thought about all the things he put off doing with his friend, and with his own life.
Later that evening his friend appeared to him in dream. Above his friend angels hovered, and then his friend spoke...
We think there's always tomorrow to sail and to try
But moments become memory as time passes by
We think within tomorrow I will do and will say
But every tomorrow becomes yesterday
So don't put to the side the chance to become
Embrace all life's moments for you may be the one
Whose ideals lift us up to touch stars in the sky
Remember, there is no tomorrow just time passing by
For life's in the moment, shimmering right in your hands
You must grasp and embrace it to understand
That life's but a flicker, take the chance, sing a song
My friend, love more in today, for now I am gone
And there's not always tomorrow to sail to horizons for-longed
Live for today
I am gone
I am gone
Live for today
for tomorrow may not come along
And the angels, hovering above the man, wept.
