I turned on the evening news

Saw a old man being interviewed

Turning a hundred and two today

Asked him what's the secret to life

He looked up from his old pipe

Laughed and said "All I can say is.

"Don't blink

Just like that you're six years old

and you're taking naps and you

Wake up and you're twenty-five

and your high school sweetheart

becomes your wife

Don't blink

You just might miss your babies

growing like mine did

Turning into moms and dads

next thing you know your better half

Of fifty years is there in bed

And you're praying God takes you instead

Trust me friend a hundred years

goes faster than you think

So don't blink

I was glued to my tv

and it looked like he looked at me and said

"Best start putting first things first."

Cause when your hourglass

runs out of sand

You can't flip over and start again

Take every breathe God gives you

for what it's worth

Don't Blink

Just like that you're six years old

and you're taking naps and you

Wake up and you're twenty-five

and your high school sweetheart

becomes your wife

Don't blink

You just might miss your babies

growing like mine did

Turning into moms and dads

next thing you know your better half

Of fifty years is there in bed

And you're praying God takes you instead

Trust me friend a hundred years

goes faster than you think

So don't blink

I've been tryna slow it down

I've been tryna take it in

In this here today gone tomorrow

world we're livin' in

Don't blink

Just like that you're six years old

and you're taking naps and you

Wake up and you're twenty-five

and your high school sweetheart becomes your wife

Don't blink

You just might miss your babies

growing like mine did

Turning into moms and dads

next thing you know your better half

Of fifty years is there in bed

And you're praying God takes you instead

Trust me friend a hundred years goes faster you think

Don't blink

Naw, don't blink

Life goes by so fast sometimes and so slow at other times!

Don't Blink. :)

Love,
Chatty
