[Verse 1] Late shift, cold dinner Missed calls on my phone Kids’ drawings on the fridge door I’ve been gone too long Broke shoes by the back door Soccer ball in the rain I skip one more story Then lie there wide awake [Pre-Chorus] What if this is all we get One more night, one more breath [Chorus] Tell them you love them, before it's too late Shout it from the kitchen, write it on the gate Hold them in the hallway, even when you’re late Tell them you love them, before it's too late [Verse 2] Mom laughs through the speaker Says, “You never call” Dad jokes, but his hands shake Can barely hold it all My sister sends a selfie Kids piled in too tight I swear that I’ll come visit Yeah, “one day” every time [Pre-Chorus] What if this is all we get One more shot, no reset [Chorus] Tell them you love them, before it's too late Shout it at the stoplight, scribble it on plates Text it in the breakdowns, say it face to face Tell them you love them, before it's too late [Bridge] To my kids in the backseat Singing off key, laughing at me (hey!) To my friends in worn-out jackets Who carried my weight when I couldn’t stand To the ones who never left Yeah, you saved me from myself [Final Chorus] Tell them you love them, before it's too late Wake ‘em on a school night, hear what they won’t say Say it when you’re angry, say it through the ache Tell them you love them, before it's too late Tell them you love them, before it's too late Tell them you love them, before it's too late
