Slow Dance
Have you ever watched the kids on the
Merry-Go-Round?
Or listen to the rain, slapping the ground?
Ever followed a butterfly's erratic trail?
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 hundred of 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 their sorrow?
Ever lost touch, let a friendship die, because 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 hurry and worry through your day
It is like a unopened gift.......
Thrown away
Life is not a race
Do take it slower
Hear the music
Before the song is over
