Blink of an Eye歌词

[00:00.000] 作词 : Michael Rosenberg

[00:15.326] I was a dreamer when I was young
[00:18.732] Lying on the grass and staring at the sky
[00:22.382] I never felt that time was moving on
[00:25.669] I thought it would stay the same for all my life
[00:29.378]
[00:30.579] Playing games under christmas lights
[00:34.150] When the world was warm and bright
[00:37.670] But that time just seemed to fly
[00:41.365] In the blinking of an eye
[00:47.000]
[00:51.428] I was a joker when I was at school
[00:54.723] Smoking grass laughing and getting high
[00:58.531] I never cared about nothing at all
[01:01.559] I thought it would stay the same for all my life
[01:05.091]
[01:06.335] Kissing girls under summer nights
[01:09.804] When the world was big and bright
[01:13.675] But that time just passed me by
[01:17.763] In the blinking of an eye
[01:19.233]
[01:23.467] I left home at seventeen
[01:27.233] Tried to get into the music scene
[01:30.849] It wore me down like an old machine
[01:34.257] I learned how to work and forgot how to dream
[01:38.034]
[01:52.457] I fell in love at twenty one
[01:55.935] Down in the grass getting lost in her wide eyes
[01:59.659] Wouldn't have traded for anyone
[02:02.920] I thought it would stay the same for all my life
[02:06.359]
[02:07.947] But I was just too young to know
[02:10.901] I let her down and let her go
[02:14.899] And that time taught me how to cry
[02:19.006] In the blinking of an eye
[02:25.918] Yeah in the blinking of an eye
[02:28.144]
[02:35.718] I hit the road at twenty three
[02:39.178] Stood in the grass singing songs for passers by
[02:42.870] Footloose and fancy free
[02:46.248] I thought it would stay the same for all my life
[02:49.397]
[02:51.267] Oh and practice taught me how to preach
[02:54.524] I touched a world so out of reach
[02:58.308] And that time it lived and died
[03:02.396] In the blinking of an eye
[03:03.902]
[03:08.453] It all changed at twenty nine
[03:11.984] My boat came in and the stars aligned
[03:15.577] I watched a simple song of mine
[03:19.183] Travel the world in the blink of an eye
[03:26.893]
[03:51.806] Now I'm here at thirty six
[03:55.544] Down in the grass trying to make sense of it all
[03:59.517] Maybe there's no easy fix
[04:02.785] The highest highs come with the hardest falls
[04:08.339] See the good times come and go
[04:12.404] Like the people that you know
[04:16.472] And all you can do is try
[04:21.133] For it's gone in the blink of an eye
