Nelson - Love Me Today lyrics

Looking back on a girl I knew Whose smile and laughter carried me through Oh, the 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 But I hear her saying Love me today, and let my strength be your own Love me today, 'cause 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 pa** 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 Love me today, and let my strength be your own Love me today, 'cause tomorrow I'll be gone When I feel it's time to go, I'll be on my way So love me today 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, no So hear them saying Love me today, and let my strength be your own Love me today, 'cause tomorrow I'll be gone When I feel it's time to go, I'll be on my way So love me today, love me today, oh, ooh
