Have you ever told your mother

That she was more than God

And for all the life she gave you

You would give her twice as much

Have you ever told your father

You were angry that he left

And when both of you got older

Did you tell him you'd forgive

Yes I have





Have you ever loved your woman

With everything you got

Have you told her that without her

Life is really not a lot

Have you ever held your new born

And looked into his eyes

When you saw your own reflection

Were you man enough to cry

Yes I was





Should have done it long ago

Now I know

What I didn't long ago

And I know that life gets shorter

Every day we lose a day

So I want you all to know

That I love you





What do we wait for

When we keep our feelings

Locked up and to ourselves

We hesitate but soon we all regret

When we find the door has closed

And we're too late





Have you ever held a loaded gun

And pressed it to your head

Did you think of all the ones you loved

And the life that you have left

Have you ever told your friends

That they mean everything to you

Did you tell then that you'd be there

And help their dreams come true

Yes I have
