The Music Won't Last

 

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 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 you 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.

Whenyou worry had 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.
