Story behind the song

I feel tha it is important that you kiss your children once in a while and tell them that you love them.  Share the Love people!  Emotional scares can result from not do this.

Lyrics

Have you kissed your Children today?
Don’t you know they might run away?
If you show them you care.
It just might keep them there.
	
Standing sad and lonely,
A voice says on the phone.

Momma can I come home
I’m so tired and alone.
And momma would you come get me,
Mamma please!  I want to come home.


Have you kissed your Children today?
Don’t you know they might run away?
If you show them you care.
It just might keep them there.

Weary and forgotten,
A voice says on the phone.

Papa may I come home,
I don’t want to travel any more.
And Papa how you feeling,
Papa please, don’t hang up the phone.


Have you kissed your Children today?
Don’t you know they might run away?
If you show them you care.
It just might keep them there.


And standing in a graveyard,
A grown man weeps and mourns.

Momma I did love you,
And Papa I really did care.
And I’ll always remember both of you,
For the love so hard to share.
