This song has a very interesting story. A guy posted his lyrics in a songwriter forum like this one. I found his lines there and composed music to go with them. At the time I was collaborating with another singer songwriter who was stationed in Iraq and I sent him the song demo to get some feedback. He liked the song and suggested that he sing the song. He recorded his vocals and also added some guitar parts. Another guitarist from London that I was working with at the time listened to my demo and agreed to record additional guitars for the track. This is “In the Blink of an Eye”. Lyrics by Ray Bertram from Arkansas, I composed the music in Germany, vocals and guitars recorded by singer songwriter LeeAndrew Bray (in Iraq), additional guitars by Mick Hutchings (from London). They all sent me their recordings and I mixed everything together. It's so sad that my setup was pretty primitive at the time. The sound could have been much better. This is a genuine international collaboration. I hope you like the song.

In The Blink Of An Eye

In the blink of an eye
The world spins around
The sun comes up
And goes back down
We win, we lose
We laugh and cry
An’ it all happens to us
In the blink of an eye
In the blink of an eye

Life starts out
Time moves so slow
Then it’s all gone
Before we know
We’re all born
We live, we die
An’ all of it happens to us
In the blink of an eye
In the blink of an eye

We make our plans
Dream all our dreams
Try an’ figure out
Everything
While our days just
Sail right on by
An’ all of it happens to us
In the blink of an eye
In the blink of an eye

It all goes by so much
Faster than you think
All that you have to do
Is blink – just blink

Funny how life happens
Time moves so slow
And it’s all gone
Before we know
We’re all born
We live we die
An’ it all happens to us
In the blink of an eye
In the blink of an eye
In the blink of an eye
