[Verse]
You live your life like you are counting every hour
No time to spare, no time to smell the flowers
You work your fingers to the bone (just to stay alive)
Now you find yourself alone (say you will survive)
This life won't last forever
You better take some time out while you can

[Chorus]
(Time out) to stop and look around you
(Take some time out) so many things to see
(Time out) don't let this life go on with you
(Time out) time out
(Time out) time out
(Time out)

[Verse]
All day, all night, you're trying to make a living
It's an oversight, there's something you're forgetting
Your son has things he want to show you (you are never home)
Your friends don't even know you (and you never phone)
This life won't last forever
You need to take some time out while you can

[Chorus]
(Time out) stop and look around you
(Take some time out) so many things to see
(Time out) don't let this life go on with you
(Take some time out) time out
(Time out) time out
(Time out)
[Bridge]
Good friends, family too
Look at all all that God has made for you
He gave his soul, his greatest gift
(Life that we could live)

[Chorus/Outro]
(Time out) oh, stop and look around you
(Take some time out) there's so many things to see
(Time out) don't let this life go on with you
(Take some time out) take some time out, take some time out
(Thank God) thank God
(For what he's done) for what he's done
(Take some time out) that's all you got to do, just take out some time and see
(Thank God) thank God
(For what he's done) for what he's done
(Take some time out) all the many things that he's done for you
(Thank God) thank God
(For what he's done) for what he's done
[Fade out]
