When we were young
the days stretched on forever. 
We thought the light would always shine.
But I moved away
and out of my car window
I swore we'd get together again sometime. 

But some time goes by 
just like all the time.
Those days that seem the same still slip on by
and someday soon won't be there forever. 
It all goes by 
in the blink of an eye.

After so many years
I saw you just the other day.
You told me that the family was doing fine.
As we spoke I realized 
that I had to go
and I said we ought to get together sometime.

But some time goes by 
just like all the time.
Those days that seem the same still slip on by
and someday soon won't be there forever. 
It all goes by 
in the blink of an eye.

I saw you again
at the church we grew up in
after an hour of waiting in a line.
They had you laid out up front
 in your Sunday best
and I'd said we ought to get together sometime. 

But some time goes by 
just like all the time.
Those days that seem the same still slip on by
and someday soon won't be there forever. 
It all goes by 
in the blink of an eye.
It all goes by in the blink of an eye....
