The seasons change
The clouds pass by
The birds move on
A flower dies

The ways of life
Aren’t so complex
Just slow down
And take a breath

The rivers freeze
And thaw again
A baby is born
You lose a friend

But the ways of life
Aren’t so complex
If you just slow down
To take a breath

The working class
Moves up a notch
While those up high
Check their watch

You make life
So complex
When you don’t slow down
And take a breath
