Rustig aan
Have you ever watched kids on a merry-go-round,
or listened to rain slapping the ground?
Ever followed a butterflyâs erratic flight,
or gazed at the sun fading into the night?
You better slow down, donât dance so fast,
time is short, the music wonât last.
Do you run through each day on the fly,
when you ask âHow are you?â, 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, donât dance so fast,
time is short, the music wonât last.
Ever told your child, weâll do it tomorrow,
and in your haste, not see his sorrow?
Ever lost touch, let a friendship die,
âcause you never had time to call and say hi?
You better slow down, donât dance so fast,
time is short, the music wonât 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,
itâs like an unopened gift thrown away.
Life isnât a race, so take it slower,
hear the music before your song is over.
