Take a moment enjoy the seasons Take your time and walk don't run Set aside some time for laughter Learn to cry before the kids are grown
Looking back on those moments They're the only ones we've got Teach your children all the lessons That you learned Before you are gone
Take a change and make it happen Help them stand before they fall Another lesson as they get older Before you know they'll be on their own Steer them in the right direction how From what you know now From what you know now
When your friends They all seem the scatter And you find that you've lost your way That's the time To find what really matters The little things That really helped you stay There's a peaceful emotion When you're on your way back home Treasure every moment That you got Before you are gone
Take a change and make it happen Help them stand before they fall Another lesson as they get older Before you know they'll be on their own Steer them in the right direction how From what you know now From what you know now
