SLOW
DANCE
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'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 getting there.
When you worry and hurry
through your day,
It is like an unopened
gift....
Thrown away.
Life is not a
race.
Do take it slower
Hear the
music
Before the song is over.
This young girl has 6 months left
to live, and as her dying wish, she wanted to send a letter telling
everyone to
live their life to the fullest, since she never will.
She'll
never make it to prom, graduate from high school, or get married
and have a
family of her own.
By clicking the heart, you can give her and her family a
little hope, because with every click on heart, The American Cancer Society
will donate 3 cents
to her treatment and recovery plan. It's
not even your money, just
your time to click the heart!
PLEASE PASS ON AS A LAST REQUEST.
