Blink of the Eye

it's amazing just how fast things can change
how you can go from the king of the world
to feeling like a person who is thought strange
not understanding how things got re-arranged

the fall from the top can happen so quick
you turn your head for just a brief moment
it's like someone has played a magic trick
you're left standing without a walking stick

I guess it's because you can be blinded by the light
like the proverbial deer frozen in time
you thought you were doing everything right
but eerie strange things happen in the night

you will never know all the things that pass by
while for just a moment you rest your weary soul
things can return so there is no reason to cry
yes lives can change in the blink of the eye
