Teach me to number my days and count every moment before it slips away
Taking all the colors before they fade to gray.
I don't want to miss even just a second more of this

Chorus:
It happens in a blink, It happens in a flash.
It happens in the time it took to look back
I try to hold on tight, but there's no stopping time.
What is it I've done with my life

It happens in a blink (x2)

when it's all said and done, no one remembers how far we have run.
The only thing that matters is how we have loved.
I don't want to miss even just a second more of this.

Chorus:

It happens in a blink (x4)

Slow down, slow down, Before today becomes our yesterday.
Slow down, slow down
Before you turn around and it's too late

Chorus: x2

It happens in a blink (x4)
