Blink

Used to watch her
Crawling shameless as a child
Where'd she go
While I have barely passed the time?
Blink, I will miss you
While you scramble to compile
The scrapbooks, the postcards
The trophies handed back to me

Back to me
Let her slide
Down to me
When you find she's grown up
Make her slow down
If that will bring her back to me

We're too close to see that
As every second falls like rain
The right side just ticks by
But only the half the time each day
Blink, I will miss you
You waited until I turned away
The green light just passed by
Like opportunity and me

Back to me
Let her slide
Down to me
Blink, there's something borrowed something blue
With cameras starring back at you
The memories you'll leave for me tonight

There may still be away around the time
But time will find its way around
Don't touch the brakes before we're driving strong past 88
Then we'll see if we're still found
The song's distorting the horizon
The laughs make radio obscure
I blinked and missed the billboard's message
But if you stare through rear view's glare and catch the glare
Just sing it back to me

Back to me
Let her slide
Down to me
When you find she's grown up
Make her slow down
If that will bring her back to me
Back to me
Let her slide
Down to me
When you find she's grown up
Make her slow down
If that will bring her back to me
