i lie awake and watch her sleeping
she's lost in peaceful dreams
so i turn out the lights and lay there in the dark
and the thought crosses my mind
if i never wake up in the morning
would she ever doubt the way i feel
will she know how much i loved her
did i try in every way to show her every day
and if my time on earth were through
and she must face the world without me
is the love i gave her in the past
'cause i've lost loved ones in my life
who never knew how much i loved them
now i live with the regret
that my true feelings for them never were revealed
so i made a promise to myself
to say each day how much she means to me
and avoid that circumstance
where there's no second chance to tell her how i feel
will she know how much i loved her
did i try in every way to show her every day
and if my time on earth were through
and she must face the world without me
is the love i gave her in the past
so tell that someone that you love
just what you're thinking of
