Disclaimer: I don't own the characters or the song (If Tomorrow Never Comes by Ronan Keating)
This is my first fic, I'm not really a writer but I had this song stuck in my head for ages and I needed to get it out so here goes...
(if you don't know the song i recommend you listen to it first)
Sometimes late at night
I lie awake and watch her sleeping
I still can't believe that after so many years of dancing around each other, she's here with me
She's lost in peaceful dreams
So I turn out the lights and lay there in the dark
I'm so happy that she's here with me, that we're finally comfortable and content with each other
And the thought crosses my mind
If I never wake up in the morning
The nature of our jobs makes us realise how precious life is and how quickly it can disappear with no warning
Would she ever doubt the way I feel
About her in my heart
I've always found it hard to express my feelings - especially to her
If tomorrow never comes
Will she know how much I loved her
Did I try in every way to show her every day
That she's my only one
And if my time on earth were through
She told me not long ago she wasn't ready to say goodbye and I'm not ready to say goodbye either
And she must face the world without me
I know she's strong, but she deserves to be loved
Is the love I gave her in the past
Gonna be enough to last
If tomorrow never comes
I've seen so much loss and pain and I don't want her to suffer she needs to know I will always love her
'Cause I've lost loved ones in my life
Everyone loses someone they love at some point, I couldn't cope if I lost her though, and if she died I would too
Who never knew how much I loved them
I've always struggled to express my emotions, especially to the ones I love, it's meant a lot of loved ones have never known how important they are, and she can't be one of them
Now I live with the regret
That my true feelings for them never were revealed
It's painful to think people consider me to be cold and not feel things, she said it to me once; she wished to be like me, to not feel things. I hope she doesn't still think that. I need to know that's not what she thinks.
So I made a promise to myself
To say each day how much she means to me
And avoid that circumstance
Where there's no second chance to tell her how I feel
I will tell her how much I love her and how important she is to me
If tomorrow never comes
Will she know how much I loved her
I have to tell her I love her, so she knows I mean it, that it's not just words to me
Did I try in every way to show her every day
I can't take her for granted
That she's my only one
I love her, always have always will
And if my time on earth were through
When it's my time it's my time, there's nothing I can do
And she must face the world without me
I don't want to leave her alone, but we don't always get what we want
Is the love I gave her in the past
Gonna be enough to last
If tomorrow never comes
I need to know that I'll leave her knowing how much I love her
So tell that someone that you love
Just what you're thinking of
If tomorrow never comes
The next morning she woke up to see the man she loves smiling down at her.
"Sara, I Love You"
She smiled her infamous gap-toothed smile "I Love you too, Griss"
