Have you ever watched kidsOn a merry-go-round?Or listened to the rainslapping on the ground?Ever followed a butterfly's erratic flight?Or gazed at the sun into the fading night?You better slow downDon't dance so fastTime is shortThe music won't lastDo you run through each day On the fly?When you ask How are you?Do you hear the reply?When the day is doneDo you lie in your bedWith the next hundred choresRunning through your head?You'd better slow downDon't dance so fastTime is shortThe music won't lastEver told your childWe'll do it tomorrow?And in your hasteNot see his?Sorrow? Ever lost touchLet a good friendship die?Cause you never had timeOr call and say,'Hi'?You'd better slow downDon't dance so fastTime is shortThe music won't lastWhen you run so fast to get somewhereYou miss half the fun of getting thereWhen you worry and hurry through your dayIt is like an unopened giftThrown away. Life is not a raceDo take it slowerHear the musicBefore the song is over
