In a Blink of An Eye

Did you just leave me in a blink of an eye? My ears aren’t open to your heartless lies… And your twisted lullabies…and your wretched goodbyes Did you think you’re gonna get away with hating on me? Oh how the time flies…I hear your cries as your voice dries My fears are flying out the window… I’m facing yesterday’s tomorrow’s sorrow Don’t give me that blank expression I’ve made my final decision I’m going to wait for a long, long time Till I find the one I love – when that time comes, That time will be so sublime Nice to see you again… Nice to be with you once more Let the marvelous day begin Someday, you and I will soar! Where have you been? How have you been? Where did you go? Did you go with the flow? I need to show you something very dear to me I’ve made this art piece and it took me hours to make We’re spinning ‘round and ‘round and ‘round Like a merry-go-round without the slightest sound Don’t give me that blank expression I’ve made my final decision I’m going to wait for a long, long time Till I find the one I love – when that time comes, That time will be so sublime Nice to see you again… Nice to be with you once more Let the marvelous day begin Someday, you and I will soar! Where have you been? How have you been? Where did you go? Did you go with the flow? There are some things on my mind that I have to tell you Racing thoughts have been zipping through my mind The clock keeps on chiming and my time is almost up out of the blue I am receiving peace of mind, but that peace is hard to find Don’t give me that blank expression I’ve made my final decision I’m going to wait for a long, long time Till I find the one I love – when that time comes, That time will be so sublime Nice to see you again… Nice to be with you once more Let the marvelous day begin Someday, you and I will soar! Where have you been? How have you been? Where did you go? Did you go with the flow? Did you just leave me in a blink of an eye? My ears aren’t open to your heartless lies… And your twisted lullabies…and your wretched goodbyes Did you think you’re gonna get away with hating on me? I hope you good luck as you leave me behind You shut the front door… I was on my knees, crying and more… I’m screaming my lunges out… I’m as dry as a drought But as wet as the ocean no doubt… Rivers of tears stream down my eyes You left me with nothing, but your emptiness and lies
