It is such a great song. I have been singing along with itmeverytime I hear it. But some days, like today, the lyrics really resonate. "Slow down you crazy child"... It is really important to make sure I do not get ahead of myself. It is so easy in our day to day job to completely lose sight of what we really want to do. This song reminds me to go back to myself when busy to remember that "Vienna waits for you".

The lyrics say it all....

Slow down, you crazy child
you're so ambitious for a juvenile
But then if you're so smart, tell me
Why are you still so afraid?

Where's the fire, what's the hurry about?
You'd better cool it off before you burn it out
You've got so much to do and
Only so many hours in a day

But you know that when the truth is told..
That you can get what you want or you get old
You're gonna kick off before you even
Get halfway through
When will you realize, Vienna waits for you?

Slow down, you're doing fine
You can't be everything you want to be
Before your time
Although it's so romantic on the borderline tonight
Tonight,...
Too bad but it's the life you lead
you're so ahead of yourself that you forgot what you need
Though you can see when you're wrong, you know
You can't always see when you're right. you're right

You've got your passion, you've got your pride
but don't you know that only fools are satisfied?
Dream on, but don't imagine they'll all come true
When will you realize, Vienna waits for you?

Slow down, you crazy child
and take the phone off the hook and disappear for awhile
it's all right, you can afford to lose a day or two
When will you realize,..Vienna waits for you?
And you know that when the truth is told
that you can get what you want or you can just get old
You're gonna kick off before you even get half through
Why don't you realize,. Vienna waits for you
When will you realize, Vienna waits for you?

Shine

The more I let it in, the better it gets. It really feels that things are falling into place. And why? Because I have made the choice to accept it. It is ok to have things falling into place. I really liked the metaphor Ingrid Tappin gave me last week, and the video I saw on youtube about it. "Live your life like a true rockstar". And that is what I will do. And I will do everything I can to help create a world full of people who chose to live their lives as true rockstars!
