Blink of An Eye lyrics

Child, as I look in your eyes

You know my life seems like a minute

There I find living proof

Of all the wonder life hold in it

In the past I thought I had to learn

Any good that comes from this life we're living

Here and now, let us realize

That this life's gift and it's already been given

[Chorus:]

Someday when you stand in the middle

Like it or not you're gonna look both ways

You're gonna find that time is a riddle

Where days turn into years

And years into the blink of an eye

Child, once I saw a man on the tv

Lead a nation up a mountain

He said, children, look over yonder

The flame of truth is burning brightly

Sometimes you look so far, there's only so much time

Only so many of us are gonna get there

Here and now is all we really have

But if we can make it count

We got no reason to worry

[Chorus]

You're gonna walk that mile

You're gonna be in that number

You're gonna make that journey

Just like the good book says

There's a time to be born, a time to cross over
