Artist/Band: Kenny Chesney
Lyrics for Song: Don't Blink
Lyrics for Album: Just Who I Am: Poets & Pirates [RCA] [2007]



I turned on the evening news

Saw an old man being interviewed

Turnin' 102 today.

Asked him what's the secret to life

He looked up from his old pipe

Laughed and said all I can say is:



Don't blink,

Just like that you're six years old

And you take a nap

And you wake up and you're 25

Then your high school sweetheart becomes your wife.

Don't blink,

You just might miss your babies growing like mine did

Turnin' into moms and dads

Next thing you know your better half of 50 years

Is there in bed and you're prayin' God takes you instead

Trust me friend, 100 years goes faster than you think

So don't blink.



Well, I was glued to my T.V.

When it looked like he looked at me

And said, "You best start puttin' first things first."

'Cause when your hour glass runs out of sand

You can't flip it over and start again

Take every breath God gives you for what it's worth.



Don't blink,

Just like that you're six years old

And you take a nap

And you wake up and you're 25

Then your high school sweetheart becomes your wife.

Don't blink,

You just might miss your babies growing like mine did

Turnin' into moms and dads

Next thing you know your better half of 50 years

Is there in bed and you're prayin' God takes you instead

Trust me friend, 100 years goes faster than you think

So don't blink.



So, I've been trying to slow it down.

I've been tryin' to take it in.

In this here today gone tomorrow world we're living in

So...



Don't blink,

Just like that you're six years old

And you take a nap

And you wake up and you're 25

Then your high school sweetheart becomes your wife.

Don't blink,

You just might miss your babies growing like mine did

Turnin' into moms and dads

Next thing you know your better half of 50 years

Is there in bed and you're prayin' God takes you instead

Trust me friend, 100 years goes faster than you think

So don't blink.



No, don't blink.

Don't blink.

Life goes faster than you think, so don't blink.

Life goes faster than you think. Don't blink

Don't blink

Life goes faster than you think...
