Story Behind The Song
wrote this song for myself when I was getting uptight with too much to do. Turned out other people liked it to, so I decided to record it. People like to sing along with it at my shows and look into their spouse's eyes at the end, which is cool.

Lyrics
I haven't been takin' enough time to look at the trees.
I haven't been takin' enough time to look at the trees.
I haven't been takin' enough time to look at the trees.
Oh my, Oh me. I need to look at the trees.
I haven't been takin' enough time to look at the sky. (3x)
Oh me, Oh my. I need to look at the sky.
I haven't been takin' enough time to look at the sea. (3x)
Oh my, oh me. I need to look at the sea.
Bridge:
Slow down.
Take time.
Rest a little easier.
I haven't been takin' enough time to look in your eyes. (3x)
Oh me, Oh my. I need to look in your eyes.
I haven't been takin' enough time.
I haven't been takin' enough time.
I haven't been takin' enough time?for you.
I haven't been takin' enough time?for me.
I haven't been takin' enough time?for Thee.
