Love Me Today Part II 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 

...I hear her saying 

Chorus: 

Love me today, and let my strength be your own 

Love me today, because 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 pass 

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 

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 

...So hear them saying 

Chorus 

....Love me today (Oh)
