Have you ever watched kids on a merry-go-round,
or listened to rain slapping the ground?
.
Ever followed a butterfly’s erratic flight,
or gazed at the sun fading into the night?
.
You better slow down, don’t dance so fast,
time is short, the music won’t last.
.
Do you run through each day on the fly,
when you ask “How are you?”, do you hear the reply?
.
When the day is done, do you lie in your bed,
with the next hundred chores running through your head?
.
You better slow down, don’t dance so fast,
time is short, the music won’t last.
.
Ever told your child, we’ll do it tomorrow,
and in your haste, not see his sorrow?
.
Ever lost touch, let a friendship die,
’cause you never had time to call and say hi?
.
You better slow down, don’t dance so fast,
time is short, the music won’t last.
.
When you run so fast to get somewhere,
you miss half the fun of getting there.
.
When you worry and hurry through your day,
it’s like an unopened gift thrown away.
.
Life isn’t a race, so take it slower,
hear the music before your song is over.
