Looking back on a girl I knew

Whose smile and laughter carried me through

Ohthe way that I felt when she looked at me that way



When I heard she was gone I had no one to hold

I wept as I felt my heart growin' cold

Like poppa she taught me there's no time like today

...i hear her saying



Chorus:

Love me todayand let my strength be your own

Love me todaybecause tomorrow I'll be gone

When I feel it's time to go - I'll be on my way

So love me today



I remember a time back when

Poppa would laugh as I held his hand

And just one embrace would make my troubles pass



I thought those times would never end

The day that he left he smiled and he said

I'll be home soon but poppa never came back...

I hear him saying



Don't be afraid to say"i love you"

Take the moment and make it last

¡®cause if you don't tell them you love them

You might not get a second chance

...so hear them saying



Chorus

....love me today (oh)
