I never thought...

I never thought that this would be the last time that I heard you laugh
If I did, than I would have tried to make you laugh some more.
I never thought that this would have been the last time that I'd see you take a nap
If I did, I would have kissed your forehead and I wouldn't have covered my ears as you snored.
But I never thought...

I never thought that this would be the last time that you would hold me tight
If I did, than I would have stroked your check while we listened to the storm outside.
I never thought that this would be the last time that you would dance with me
If I did, than I would have asked for that dance one more time.
But I never thought...

I never thought that this would be the last time that you would wash my hair
If I did, than I would have requested more shampoo.
I never thought this would be the last time that I'd be over there
If I did, than I would have kept you more "occupied" in your bedroom.
But I never thought...

I never thought that this would have been our last "mudd-riding adventure"
If I did, than I would have squealed more with joy.
I never thought that this would have been our very last winter
If I did, than I would have paid more attention to your "politic stories"
But I never thought...

I never thought that this would have been our very last kiss
If I did, than I would have prolonged the moment.
I never thought that this would have been our very last car ride into the midnight mist
If I did, than I would have held onto your hand and thanked the Lord above that your presence was sent.
But I never thought...

I never thought that this would have been the last time that I would hear you say "I love you"
If I did, than I would have made sure that you understood that I loved you too.
But I never thought...
