Dance Just For Today
Do you run through
The day on the fly?
When asked.....
"How are you"?
Do you even reply?
When you run so fast
To try and get some where
Take it slow cuz you'll miss
Half the fun of getting there.
So slow down and
Don't dance so fast
Cuz time is short
And these song's won't last
Ever lost touch and
Let a good friendship die
Cuz you never had time
To call and say "Hi" ?
So when you worry and
Hurry through your day
It's like a unopened present.......
Just thrown away!
So slow down and
Don't dance so fast
Cuz time is short and
These song's won't last
When your day is done
Do you lie in your bed
With the next 100 chores
Running through your head?
Don't race threw life
Take it slower hear the music
Before the song is over........
So slow down and
Don't dance so fast
Cuz time is short
Ans this song wont last!!!
