Lyrics
Don't take too long: lyric by, Raymond Fry & Steve Manning
As you step into the future I may never see,
Let yourself become the person you could really be.
I know the days move slowly
as you wish away your youth,
Beware of those who claim that they alone have found the truth.
Don't take too long to realize that you're strong,
Don't let people fool ya, when they tell ya you're wrong.
Don't take too long to see we're not inside the Matrix, love is real,
Don't take too long to find that scars can heal.
If you find that there are roads which you must walk alone,
Try to find a self that you can truly call your own.
If after failed relationships you can't bare them any-more,
Don't take too long to realize that love's worth waiting for.
Don't take too long to realize that you're strong,
Don't let people fool ya, when they tell ya you're wrong.
Don't take too long to see we're not inside the Matrix, love is real,
Don't take too long to find that scars can heal.
I can see your natural spirit clearly shining through,
And I'm so proud that I can spend this precious time with you.
Believe there's not a single problem you cannot surmount,
And when this life caresses you, make every moment count.
Wish I had more to say, wish I had more to give:
A mothers inspiration for every day you live.
And I hope that when the course is finally run,
You'll look back and say "Those days were good, and I was loved".
Don't take too long to realize that you're strong,
Don't let people fool ya, when they tell ya you're wrong.
Don't take too long to see we're not inside the Matrix, love is real,
Don't take too long to find that scars can heal.
Don't take too long
to realize you're strong,
Don't take too long
