Busy Man

by: Steven Curtis Chapman

Ohh here's a story 'bout a busy man
I know a man named Billy
He's got almost everything
Three storeys, two cars, one swimming pool
And some broken parts of an empty heart
And I'm thinkin'
Billy, Billy, Billy you're a very busy man
But you're running with your eyes closed
You could be missing life all along the way
And you'd never even know it, you're a busy man
Billy, Billy you're a busy man
Just too busy man
You're too busy man
You've got a lot of nice things there Billy
But they've cost you more than you know
'Cause what is it really worth can you tell me
If you're gaining the world but you're losing your soul
And I'm thinkin'
Hey Billy, Billy, Billy you're a very busy man
But you're running with your eyes closed
Looks like you traded life for the things you have
Not the thing you really wanted you're a busy man
Billy, Billy you're a busy man
Just too busy man
So when the day is over
And the lights go out
Do you ever stop and wonder?
Wonder what it's all about
Wonder what it's all about
You wonder what it's all about
Hey Billy do you ever
Wonder what it's all about?
You wonder what it's all about
Is this what it's all about
If Billy I can tell you're wondering
Ohh you're so busy, busy
Yeah Billy, Billy, Billy you're a very busy man
But you're running with your eyes closed
You'd be missing life all along the way
And you'd never even know it, you're a busy man
Billy, Billy you're a busy man
Just too busy, busy, busy man
Billy, Billy you're a busy man gonna stop Billy
Ohh you're way too busy man
You need slow down
You need to take a look around you busy, busy man
Slow down busy man take a look around you
When it's all said and done, tell me what's it gonna come to?
Slow down busy man take a look around you
