Will you please stop to smell the roses?

How far away have you gone
To pursue a life you have always dreamt of
And while you disappear into the twilights of a new world
How much do you remember of me
And all the good times we shared
When we stopped to smell the roses

Do they mean anything to you
For they really meant the world to me
And all it represents in my life
With my dreams and hopes for the future
You never left my mind ever since you entered
For we stopped to smell the roses

And as I think of what you might be doing now
Life's never too short to say how much I care for you
I will never know what is going on in your mind
And certainly how you are faring
But please spare for a moment in time
To once again stop and smell the roses

And when you do, I know that you are you
