Blink of an eye

Here's a song I wrote yesterday called 'Blink of an eye'. It's inspired by a very lovely friend of mine and it's about how sometimes, when crappy stuff happens, it changes you and you have to to re-find yourself again.

Blink of an eye

Here are the words.

Half verse intro
Verse 1
Something in your life, takes you by surprise,
Takes you by your hand, and shakes you where you stand.

Pre-Chorus
Caught you way off guard, swept you off your feet
Good or Bad it’s hard, to find yourself released

Chorus
From the person you once knew, who slipped away in the blink of an eye
and you’re left with a stranger, and you wanna go back and hide  

Verse 2
Never searched so far, never searched so wide,
find out who you are, in the river wide.

Pre-Chorus
Caught you way off guard, swept you off your feet
Good or Bad it’s hard, to find yourself released

Chorus (double)
From the person you once knew, who slipped away in the blink of an eye
and you’re left with a stranger, and you wanna go back and hide  
as the person you once knew, who slipped away in the blink of an eye
and you’re left with a stranger, and you wanna go back and hide  

Verse 3
Never searched so high, to find a better sky
tryn’ to stop the roll, when life knocks your soul

Pre-Chorus
Caught you way off guard, swept you off your feet
Good or Bad it’s hard, to find yourself released

Chorus (double)
From the person you once knew, who slipped away in the blink of an eye
and you’re left with a stranger, and you wanna go back and hide  
as the person you once knew, who slipped away in the blink of an eye
and you’re left with a stranger, and you wanna go back and hide  

M8
Searching so deep that you just can’t sleep
and the questions burn through your mind
feeling half blind like you’ve lost your mind
and the answers you just can’t find

PC Instrumental
You find yourself released

Chorus (double)
From the person you once knew, who slipped away in the blink of an eye
and you’re left with a stranger, and you wanna go back and hide  
as the person you once knew
as the person you once knew  
as the person you once knew
