Have you ever watched kids on a merry-go-round

Or listened to rain slapping 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 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 seen his sorrow?

Ever lost touch, let a good friendship die

'Cause 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 worry and hurry though your day

It is like an unopened gift thrown away

Life is not a race,so take it slower

Hear the music before the song is over
