Analysis of Blink Of An Eye
Just when you think life is good.
Shattered dreams and shattered hopes.
Stop this curve ball thrown my way
What to do, Where to go...
God has my plan, which way may I go?
Guide me down this path of life and bring me into the brighter light.
How to ful-fill this journey I choose
Right or Wrong, who really knows?
Push a little longer, a little harder to accomplish this and that.
For what purpose do I suppose?
This I truly know,
Everything can be gone in a Blink Of An Eye
Chapter done and Booked Closed
New Beginnings to arise
Time to pick up the ball and move down my road
Nothing is permanent, Live Life How you want it
Be True To Yourself for this is our Temporarily Home
