Slow Down, Don't Dance So Fast

Have you watched kids on a merry go round?
or listened to the rain slapping on the ground?
Ever followed a butterfly's eratic flight?
or gazed at the sun into the fading night?
you better slow down.
dont dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music wont 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.
Dont dance so fast
Time is short.
The music dont last.
Ever told your love
We will do it later?
And in your haste,
Let a relationship die
Cause you never had time to call and say, Hi
You'd better slow down.
Dont dance so fast.
Time is short
the music wont 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.
Its like an unopened gift......Thrown away.
Is life a race to you?
Do take it slower...........
Hear the music..................
Before the song is over....................
