IF I SHOULD LIVE ANOTHER DAY
If I should live another day,
It will be to love another day
Some tomorrow in the present
Some portent beyond yesterday.

If I should live another day,
Rise with dawn, breathe the dare
It will be to love another day
Beholden by the hold of care.

For sure I’d live for another day
Another chance to rhyme my stay,
Hear the music of timeless romance —
Holding life in my arms for one more dance.

If I should live another day
I’ll give no thought to go away,
Just grasp again the promise to cope;
By light of day – the caress of hope.

IF I SHOULD LIVE TO LOVE ANOTHER DAY.
