Blink & Gone

The morning light will cross the room
Distance dancing in your gloom
Something may be almost clear
A moment slips me out of fear
You try to hold what just was there
But time is moving everywhere

Every second is only vows
Like echoes fading through the walls

You blink, it's gone
Your eyes still wet
But the world moves on
Blink again, already forgot
Another second slipping through the hands of your thoughts

Voices drift and disappear
Footsteps fading far from here
Yesterday feels far away
Though it was only yesterday
Everything we try to keep
Slowly sinks in silent sleep

Every heartbeat draws a line
Quiet marks a passing time

You blink, it's gone
Your eyes still wet
But the world moves on
Blink again, already forgot
Another second slipping through the hands of your thoughts

Ah, ah, ah

Who your life body feelings
Nothing will every stay the same
Every spot will fade from you
Before the moment it was you

You blink, it's gone
Your eyes still wet
But the world moves on
Blink again, already forgot
A thousand moments falling through the hands of your thoughts
