Slow Dance
Have you ever watched kids on a merry go round?
Or listen to the rain slapping on the ground?
Ever followed a butterfly's erratic flight?
Or gaze at the sun into the fading night?
You better slow down.
Don`t dance to 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 on your bed?
With the next hundred chores running around in your head?
You'd better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.
Ever told your child we'll do it tommorow?
And in his haste you don't see his sorrow?
Ever lost touch, Let a good friendship die
Cause you never had time to call and say "hi"?
You'd 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 getting there
When you worry and hurry through the day,
It is like an unopened gift
Thrown away
Life is not a race
Do take it slower
Hear the music
Before the song is over. - Unknown;
