Cullen Ruff - While You've Got the Chance

Parents and mentors guide us all of our lives
With tips for survival, and hopes that we'll thrive
We give them honor when we follow their leads
Like harvests grown from well tended seeds

Use the brain that God gave you, try hard in school
Say please and thank you, and don't act a fool
Don't tell all you know, don't spend all you make
Plan for tomorrow, and cherish today

And say it, as time will allow
Show them you care, your heart will show you how
Tell them you love them, ask them to dance
Say it while you've got the chance
If I could share insight I've seen from a glance
Say it while you've got the chance

Folks can be different, yet respect and be kind
Be honest, hard working, and enjoy peace of mind
Look for the good, don't focus on faults
And enjoy simple pleasures, like an old country waltz

Give thanks for the blessings, and for what you've been spared
There's no better way to know someone cared
You can show it with action, or say it with word
But however you do it, make sure that you're heard

Say it, as time will allow
Show them you care, your heart will show you how
Tell them you love them, teach them to dance
Say it while you've got the chance

If I could share insight I've seen from a glance
Say it while you've got the chance
Yes if I could share wisdom I've learned from life's dance
Say it, while you've got the
Show it, while you've got
Just do it, while you've got the chance
Love them, 'cause you've got the chance
