Lyrics

Smell the Roses
©2001, Scott Stepakoff


I think I?ll take me a little break for a while.
Head up North and see some snow.
Get out for a while, treat myself with style.
Take my life a bit slow.
And it sure seems strange when you?re forced to rearrange
The way you felt before.
And everything changes when you stop and look around you.
Nothing else matters anymore, when you...

Chorus
Stop and smell the roses.
Stop and smell the roses before they all blow away.
Stop and smell the roses, they?re gonna die some day.
Stop and smell the roses.

Nothings for certain, but there?s one thing I can tell you.
You gotta experience new shit to stay sane.
Lord, I?ve just seen a sight I really can?t explain.
But I?m sure there?s something we?re supposed to do. I think we?re supposed to...

Chorus

So won?t you let him go, let him walk on by.
Tell him he knows where to find the door.
Don?t you know I can offer so much more.
Don?t be sorry honey, give me a try.

Chorus

Stop and look around.
Stop and look around before it all comes crumbling down.
You better stop and take it all in.
It?s gonna be too late.
You better do it now.
