Blink of the Eye

2-4-6-8-10-12-14-16-18-20-22-24 So on And so on the world spins bye My babies are young men in a blink of a eye. I wish they were still amazed by lighting bugs in jars. I wish they still had to hear me sing the song about the stars. Soon they will leave my nest Soon on my heart their heads won't rest If I could stop time on its tracks . If I could take just one thing I would want to take back It would be every moment I had with them By my side. I would watch with wonder and never blink my eyes
