Music by Jean Sibelius, Lyrics by Lloyd Stone & Georgia Harkness
I stand before you now pretending to be cool
But all the time I’m wondering if I’m looking like a fool
Will I be as perfect as I think I outh to be
And when I’m not what will you think of me
I need a plan to see me through…
So here’s what I’m gonna do
I’m gonna stop reading other people’s minds
I’m gonna look at the good that surrounds me
I’m gonna listen to my heart when it tells me what to do
I’m gonna notice every time a little dream comes true
I’ll do all the living I’ve been missing
When I stop, look & listen
Stop, Look & Listen
I was walking through the park, there was beauty all around
But I didn’t see a thing cuz my eyes were on the ground
I didn’t see the sun or the sky so blue
I was thinking days ahead of the things I had to do
Drowning in stress and strain…
I said it’s time for me to make a change
I’m gonna stop reading other people’s minds
I’m gonna look at the good that surrounds me
I’m gonna listen to my heart when it tells me what to do
I’m gonna notice every time a little dream comes true
I’ll do all the living I’ve been missing
When I stop, look & listen
Stop, Look & Listen
It’s so hard to hear what my heart says to me
When my mind is chattering constantly
Living in the past or in future plans
Means watching the present slip through my hands
What am I gonna do…
I’m gonna stop reading other people’s minds
I’m gonna look at the good that surrounds me
I’m gonna listen to my heart when it tells me what to do
I’m gonna notice every time a little dream comes true
I’ll do all the living I’ve been missing
When I stop, look & listen
Stop, Look & Listen
