You look around what do you see?
I'll tell you
what I see is a world
belonging to me
take time to find what you may dream it
' all right there within your grasp
just beyond what you can see

we're the ones,
the only ones, strong ones, proud ones
we're living for today
those for the past and tomorrow
they'll have hell to pay

and if your life is going by too fast
it's time for you to slow down
it's time for you to make it last
before you trip and slip
and you will miss
this happy little stepping stone
just before eternal bliss

your life goes by
before you know
you gotta take time to slow down
better take time
to veer off the road
enjoy the sights
while you are here
there's nothing to fear but fear itself
who knows when the end is near?

don't make plans with your hands tied
you'll never know
you're missing out repeatedly
on the things
that help you grow
you've got to own your soul
you've got to take control
find a one day
plan young man
get this straight
live for today.
