She drops the phone, once clasped in her hand
She heard the news but can’t seem to comprehend,
Could this be real?
Tears fall uncontrollably down her cheek
Trying to be strong, but she feels so weak
What she wouldn't give to tell her...
Seems you never know what you have til it’s gone
So don’t let a moment pass you by
Take it from someone who’s suffered regret
Please, take this advice, I cry
You never know what you have til it’s gone
Just take life slow, please pause this marathon
Tell the ones you love,
What they mean to you
The little memories race all through her mind
Of Alexis Rae, the sweetest friend one could find
A smile broke through the pain
Of her candy corn shoes, her contagious smile
The way we’d laugh at potatoes every once in a while
The love you gave still remains
Seems you never know what you have til it’s gone
So don’t let a moment pass you by
Take it from someone who’s suffered regret
Please, take this advice, I cry
You never know what you have til it’s gone
Just take life slow, please pause this marathon
Tell the ones you love,
What they mean to you
You never know what you have til it’s gone
Just take life slow, please pause this marathon
For you,
Advice for you,
Tell the ones you love, what they mean to you.
