Lyrics
Don't Rush
Verse: When I was a girl, I just couldn't wait,
To do the things my mom could do.
I said, "Mom, I wanna drive." She said, "Hon, you're only five.
And it'll take some time for your dreams to come true. So . . .
CHORUS: Don't rush, life is like a story.
Don't rush, look at every page.
There's so much you'll miss if you hurry,
And right now you're at the perfect age,
So don't rush.
Verse: When I was sixteen, I met an older boy.
Billy stole my heart too soon.
I said, "Mom, I love him so." She said, "Hon, you think you know,
But it'll take some time for your dreams to come true. So . . .
(Repeat CHORUS)
Bridge: Both dreams of growin' up and fallin' in love,
Sure took their sweet time to come true.
Ya, but now I know to take life slow,
I had to learn for myself what my mom knew . . .
OUT CHORUS: Don't rush, life is like a story.
Don't rush, look at every page.
There's so much I'll miss if I hurry,
And right now I'm at the perfect age,
Ya, right now I'm at the perfect age,
So don't rush.
