Lyrics
Woke up this morning, she says, honey it's time to go
Three minutes between the pain, she says, with a smile though
The traffic was heavy, on the way, our baby was born that day
Woke up this morning, it's her first day of school
She looks real scared, but , she acts real cool
As she waves , the bus takes her away, I can still remember that day
In a blink, of an eye, life goes by, I well up inside, with these tears that I cry, In a blink of an eye
Woke up this morning, she says, honey we'll be late, for our baby's most important date, the tears welled up as they said their vows, I can still hear them now
Woke up this morning, looking in the mirror right now, wrinkles on my face, and white on my brows
she says, honey , it'll be alright, it's just a part of life
In a blink, of an eye, life goes by, I well up inside, with these tears that I cry, in a blink of an eye
If I'd had only known that this life had gone by so fast, I may had stopped to take a deep breath, in hopes these moments last
Woke up this morning, she's no longer by my side, been three long years, since she died
We always prayed that they'd find a cure, it got the best of her
Woke up this morning, my children by my side, they're children grown up, with tears in their eyes
They whispered Daddy, you've lived a good life, close your eyes, go to the light
In a blink of an eye, life goes by, I well up inside, with these tears that I dry, in a blink of an eye
In a blink of an eye, life goes bye,, I welled up inside, with these tears that I cry, In a blink of an eye
They woke up this morning, she says, Honey, it's time to go!!!
