SMELL THE FLOWERS
Oh Claridalia... stop and smell the flowers
For time is so precious after it is gone
Why not sit and admire the road you are on?
Why not stop and smell a rose?
Before you walk along
Oh Claridalia... stop and smell the flowers
This world is not a race
Go ahead and slow down your pace
Why not smell the apple trees?
Before they lose all of their leaves
Oh Claridalia... stop and smell the flowers
Why not gaze at the clouds overhead
Ever wonder if they are really angels' beds?
Why not sit and admire the sunset?
Before the sun makes way to the man in the moon instead
Oh Claridalia... stop and smell the flowers
Feel the cool rain before you run for cover
See the spark of lightening
Hear the roar of thunder
Why not sit puzzled in mystery?
Before everything has been discovered
Oh Claridalia... stop and smell the flowers
Autumn's moon is rising up ahead
Our earth and winter's frost will soon be wed
Why not stop and smell the flowers
Before you have forgotten all that I've said
