Lyrics
Smell the Rose by Michael Leybick
Life can be a runaround
You can feel the stress
Wear you down
Like the speed of light
You're moving way too fast
Doin' this and doin' that
Don't always know
Justt where you're at
Trying to make some sense
In your mind
Just listen now (pause)
Just step back
Take your time
To smell the rose
And drink the wine
Don't waste a single moment
Anymore
Hitch your wagon
To a star
Ride it hard
Ride it far
Let it take you to the place
To fill your soul
(Final Verse repeat at end)
Don't waste a single moment anymore
(Bridge)
What are you living for
Is it just to get some more
More of everything
That you don't need
Escape the fast and furious
Get a little curious
To see how peace and joy
Can change your life
Put away the daily stress
Grab a dose of happiness
Drop the weight from your shoulders
Let it go
