Slow The Pace

Words and Music by Ed Johnson

I told you once there’s more to living

Than simply working and not enjoying

Way too much time multitasking

We need to look up engage the asking

Our heads are locked in a spinning vortex

Of running errands, unending deadlines

Slow the pace

Enjoy a moment of silent grace

Slow the pace

Enjoy a moment of silent grace

The list keeps growing, making check marks

Striking items, never ending

See the window, past the glasswork

Something out there, no ignoring

So surprising, there’s more to living

Than simply working, so start enjoying

We all keep pushing, we keep believing

Not accepting, the scene we’re seeing

The pressure’s building, or so we’re thinking

Understanding, the choice is ours

I told you once there’s more to living

Than simply working, and not enjoying

So surprising, there’s more to living

Than simply working, so start enjoying
