Too Often We Don't Realize

Too Often We Don't Realize

Too often we don't realize

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 silly 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
