Love me now while I’m livin
Please don’t wait until I’m gone
And then chisel it in marble
Warm love words on an ice cold stone
If you have these thoughts about me
Why not tell them to me now
Don’t you know they’d make me happy
Whisper them as you kiss my brow
If you wait until I’m sleepin
Never to wake here again
There’ll be walls of earth between us
And I could not hear you then
So my dear if you love me
If only just a little bit
Let me know now while I’m living
So I can hold and treasure it
