Have you ever watched kids on the 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 someone How Are you? Do you hear the reply?* When the day is done Do you lie in 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 her sorrow?* Ever lost touch, Let a friendship die? Cause you never had time to call an 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´s like an unopened gift... Thrown away* Life is not a race, Do take it slower... Hear the
music Before the song is over...
