Well I used to laugh with an old friend till the busy world pulled him away |
|
Every now and then |
|
I see him again but he's not the same man |
|
I knew yesterday |
|
His smile just grows smaller and smaller and the worry lines fill up his face |
|
But lately |
|
I'm thinking the next time |
|
I see him just what |
|
I'm gonna say |
|
Slow down man in the mirror slow down |
|
You're running too fast to see what life's all about |
|
This world ain't a fire for you to put out |
|
The best times are here and now slow down |
|
Some days |
|
I look back on the hard times and they really don't seem all that bad |
|
Well I've got to admit |
|
I like what |
|
I've got but |
|
God I sure loved what |
|
I had But it's only on top of the mountain after burning your life at both ends |
|
You look back to see where you want to be is exactly where you've always been |
|
Slow down man... |
