If I Forget...

If I forget to tell you
just how much you mean to me,
I hope that you will remember
while you're not here with me.
If I forget to tell you
that you are my world and more,
I hope that you will remember
what I'm waiting for.
If I forget to tell you
I want you in my life,
I hope that you will remember
that I'm always by your side.
If I forget to tell you
I love you more than words,
I hope that you will remember
regardless of the hurt.
If I forget to tell you
I'm sorry for my mistakes,
I hope that you will remember
with every one I make.
If I forget to tell you
no other can compare,
I hope that you will remember
the love that we both share.
If I forget to tell you
I miss you every day,
I hope that you will remember
that forever I'm going to stay.
Whether I say these words to you,
or wait until you are here with me,
I will show you this forever,
and these words will have no need.
