what we have until it is gone;
 
Too often we wait too late to say
 
"I'm sorry - I was wrong."
 
Sometimes it seems we hurt the ones
 
we hold dearest to our hearts;
 
And we allow foolish things
 
to tear our lives apart. 
 
Far too many times we let
 
unimportant things into our minds;
 
And then it's usually too late
 
to see what made us blind.
 
So be sure that you let people know
 
how much they mean to you; 
 
Take that time to say the words 
 
before your time is through.
 
Be sure that you appreciate 
 
everything you've got
 
And be thankful for the Little Things 
 
in Life that mean a lot.
