Jesse Ruben - In The Blink of an Eye lyrics

rate me

Seventeen months in the blink of an eye

Got a brand-new apartment and a dog named Spy

Got a car that don't work and a job I don't like

But I'm pretty sure I love my wife

I know that you wish we were richer

I know this isn't what you pictured

But I am running out of tricks

And I ain't one to walk away

Never backed down from anything, but

Babe, the signs aren't hard to miss

So let's just call it love the way it is

Twenty-eight years in the blink of an eye

Raised a couple good kids, drank a lot of good wine

And I really want to travel but she hates to fly

And I'm not sure I love my wife

I know that you've been so confronted

I know this isn't what you wanted, but

Babe, I'm doing the best I can

And I ain't one to walk away

Never backed down from anything

But babe, we need a better plan

So let's just call it love while we can

Fifty-eight years in the blink of an eye

Now our kids have kids and we're always tired

And it doesn't really matter if I love my wife

Because she's still with me after all this time

I know it isn't perfect, I know it doesn't always work

But babe, be glad there's no surprise

And I ain't one to walk away

Never backed down from anything

But babe, I didn't want to try

So let's just call it love without the lies

Let's just call it love until it dies

Let's just call it love, let's just call it love<br />

<br />
