SLOW DANCEHave you ever watched kidsOn a merry-go-roundOr 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 down.Don't dance so fast.Time 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 headYou'd better slow downDon'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 dieCause you never had timeor call and say,'Hi'You'd better slow down.Don't dance so fast.Time is short.The music won't lastWhen you run so fast to get somewhereyou miss half the fun of getting thereWhen you worry and hurry through your day,It is like an unopened gift....Thrown away.Life is not arace.Do take it slowerHear the musicBefore the song is over.
