Take time each and every day, for the precious things that we are given
Don't rush thru each and every day 'forgetting the simple reasons you are living
Take time to smell the flowers, take time to ease your mind
For it's these simple pleasures we're given, that help leave the bad behind
Take time to watch a butterfly, float thru the sky so free
And just imagine a happier place that you would like to be
Ride on the wings of that butterfly, let your imagination take you there
And it will help to ease the burdens you carry, it will make you more aware
Take time to dance out in the rain, and cry the tears you hold inside
It will let you feel a peaceness, for your tears you should never hide
For they let others know your human, you have feelings and do care
Take time to dance in the rain my friend, for you pain I'm here to share
Take time to take a simple walk and take joy in a flying bird
Take time to enjoy the quietness, don't say a single word
Just look around at the beauty, that's taken for granted every day
Take pride in all we have been given in case it's taken away
Take time to share a smile, with some stranger on the street
For it just might make their day easier, with a smile as your greet
Sometimes our life is hectic and we forget to give thanks for what we've got
It's the simple little pleasures we overlook that really mean a lot
Don't get to busy in your hopes and dreams to push those who care aside
Don't bury your head down in the sand, don't get hung up on your pride
Remember its our friends that helped us thru and have been there always for you
Believing in all your dreams and goals, pushing you to achieve what you wish too
So take time to let them know your there, to return the lending hand
And take time to smell the flowers, little treasures are so grand
