Blink Of An Eye

It's 2am, I can't believe you're gone
Isn't it strange how
One life ends, but the clocks upon the wall
They keep ticking on and on and on
What were your last words?
Happened so fast, Lord
Can't help but think what you would be
If you just had the chance to turn 23, oh

It's 2am, still don't believe you're gone
And the world keeps spinning on
You had so many songs
Left to sing, so many stories that I'll never get to read
And it holds you in its arms
And now I'm down here learning how to say goodbye
In the blink of an eye

Taught to think with all this extra noise
They're talking so loud
But you're quiet now while your melody plays on
And I'll just sing along, along, along
When you took your last breath
You had so much life left
Cannot but think it could have been me out there
Chasing a dream when suddenly it all stops
In a heartbeat
There's so many songs left to sing
So many stories that I'll never get to read

And heaven holds you in its arms
And now I'm down here learning how to say goodbye
In the blink of an eye, oh, oh
In the blink of an eye, oh, hmmm
