Chorus
Listen to the river, listen to the trees,
watch the pretty flowers as they’re kissed by the breeze
Cool your feet in the water, stroll the path along the hill
Spread some joy along the way-ay, make time stand still

Verse 1
Some days I used to waste away, like a bump upon a log
My mind barely moving, at the speed of fog
That office clock staring down, from high upon the wall
Taunting me, just one more hour, till my exit down the hall

Verse 2
It used to be, that the days and years, didn’t go by so fast
Now it seems, before I blink, another month has passed
I guess I’m more aware now, with time on the run
I’d better do more living, before my days are done
