Did you ever stop to think
What it would be like,
Without the birds that sing?
Without the golden sun,
That surrounds everything?

Did you ever stop to think
What it would be like,
Without those trees so tall?
Without the falling leaves,
That always comes with Fall?

Did you ever stop to think
What it would be like,
Without the streams or lakes?
Without that babbling brook,
And the winding path it takes?

Did you ever stop to think
What it would be like,
Without those clouds so white?
Without those dark, dreary ones,
That turn the day into night?

Did you ever stop to think
What it would be like,
Without the wind that blows?
Without the cold and chill,
Every time it snows?

Did you ever stop to think
What it would be like,
Without flowers in the Spring?
Without the wonderful smell,
That the new blossoms bring?

Did you ever stop to think
What it would be like,
Without thunder and the rain?
Without the vast open fields,
Of ripe, golden grain?

Did you ever stop to think
What it would be like,
Without a valley or a hill?
Without snow capped mountains,
That tons of rocks can build?

Did you ever stop to think
What it would be like,
If all this was made by man?
He could never do it,
Only Mother Nature can.

Did you ever stop to think
What it would be like,
If your life was gone in a wink?
No, I'll bet you haven't,
So you'd
Better
Stop
And
Think.
