Blink Of An Eye Lyrics - Singles - Michael Mcdonald

By george perilli and michael mcdonald 

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: 

Photos 

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 

You can be sure it's in the blink of an eye
