6. Reading: Did I Ever Stop?

Did I ever stop to make you smile

When your day was hard or your road
was long?
When your light stopped shining for a
while,
Did I sing for you a happy song?
Did I ever try to make you laugh
When your eyes held tears and you
couldn’t speak?
When your world seemed almost torn
in half,
Did I hold your hand or kiss your
cheek?
Did I ever pause to hear your voice
When you needed just a moment's
ear?
When you’d lost your way or missed a
choice,
Did I let you know that I was near?
Did I ever stop to say I care
When I didn’t seek to hear it too?
When you weren’t so sure that I’d be
there,
Did I ever show my love for you?
