SLOWDANCE

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.
