Have you ever watched kids
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 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.
