Second Anniversary

I Didn't Say I Love You nearly Enough

My memories of you are held deep in my heart

I take them out often and remember every part

I can see your face and hear your voice too

You are always with me, no matter what i do

I lay in bed at night and wonder in despair

Why i think of you more now than when you were here

I should have told you then how i love you so

But time always seemed plenty and I though you must know

I took life for granted as many of us have done

Too busy to say I love you, our days spent on the run

So I share this with you now, please learn from my mistake

Hold you loved one close and time for them place make

For too often days go by quickly as do months and years

The chance to say I love you just simply disappears

Make sure when you close your eyes you will see a smile or two

And dream of those gone now, knowing that they knew.
