There you are all peaceful in bed
But thinking about your worries ahead
So very busy with your work
Instead of outside in play
That must really make your day
Life's to fast you complain
But we all really have it just the same
Yeah, time just passes you by
And, you wonder why
Do you stop to look around
And see what you would miss right now
No, you are molded by someone else
When you should be tending to yourself
What's important, in your life
What do you love, who do you adore
Are you attending, to both right now
Don't be quick to say goodbye
But reluctant to even say hi
Run along now but not too fast
Or regret the time that past
You'll know, you'll know what I mean
When you days are numbered
Your time is almost over
There is so little that you know
Don't act like you don't know so
Run along now but not too fast
Or regret the time that past
Dance to your beat now, sing your song
Because, you won't have long
If you wait around and idle about
Your memories won't just make themselves
Run along now but not too fast
Or regret the time that, past
