have you ever watched kids playing
on a merry~go~round,
or listened to the rain
slapping on the ground?

ever followed a butterfly's
erratic flight,
or gazed at the sun
into the fading night?

you'd 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'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 tomorrow,
and in your haste
not 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
of getting there

when you worry and hurry
through your 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
