A Little Less Hurry

Lyrics

I used to take the stairs two at a time Keep another deadline in my mind Now I stop to read the little sign The flower shop is open until nine Someone left a chair out in the shade I sit and watch the afternoon parade A dog that takes its person for a walk Two old friends who never need a clock A little less hurry A little more room I can get there slowly I can get there soon A little less hurry A little more air The road is still before me And I am already there The corner cafe knows the way I take My coffee with a little space to wait I call you just to ask about your day And let the conversation find its way There isn't any prize for getting through The lovely ordinary things we do I save a little daylight for the ride And let the city pass me on each side A little less hurry A little more room I can get there slowly I can get there soon A little less hurry A little more air The road is still before me And I am already there Nothing has to stop For me to slow it down I can find a softer rhythm In the middle of this town A little less hurry A little more air The road is still before me And I am already there
