----------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?

Youd 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.

..it's a little different from the original because i say "you'd better slow dow, don't dance so quickly, time is not ever short but slow down, before the music's gonna end".. and now i'm noticing there's a lot of people who made some personal music on this poem, like me.. :) it's strange but so beautiful!!!

i know this poem!! three/four years ago in summer a friend of mine told me about this false e-mail but we didn't yet know it was a hoax, even if we supposed that :) anyway he asked me to make some music on this song :) and i did it! but the poem in the e-mail was traslated in italian (like i am) and i didn't know about the original english version.. so i retraslated it in english :S
