I wrote this song for my parent's 50th wedding anniversary. It's really about my wife, because frankly, I didn't have a clue what to really write about how they were feeling 50 years in...

Lyrics

In the Blink of an Eye


The sky is so beautiful this afternoon
Wisps of cloud in powder blue
And the breeze is rustling through the palm trees
And all my thoughts return to you

Our Love is as deep as the ocean
Our love is as wide as the sky
Looking back on this road that we've traveled
How far we've come in the blink of an eye

Just a glance is all it takes to remember
The secrets only you and I know
And the chain reaches back in time unbroken
To the vows that we took long ago

Our Love is as deep as the ocean
Our love is as wide as the sky
Looking back on this road that we've traveled
How far we've come in the blink of an eye

The sun leaves his perch in the heavens
As we walk down this ribbon of sand
And the treasures of memories glisten
Like the shells that we hold in our hands

Our Love is as deep as the ocean
Our love is as wide as the sky
Looking back on this road that we've traveled
How far we've come in the blink of an eye

The sky is so beautiful this evening
As the sunset explodes across the bay
Holding this shell to our ears
If you listen you can almost hear it say

Our Love is as deep as the ocean
Our love is as wide as the sky
Looking back on this road that we've traveled
How far we've come in the blink of an eye
