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
just 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
