Lyrics Wink Of An Eye - Billy Squier

Wink Of An Eye

I see you walkin' down the street… you could be walkin' in a dream
I see you goin' through the motions of a life where nothin’s ever really what
it seems
Chaste by a vision of love… how it’s come down to you
Somethin' down inside is gonna make you wanna-gonna make you break through
It’s your life… it goes down in the wink of an eye
It’s your life… there you sit as the moments flash by
Chargin' day for night… chargin' grey for white
Chase the firelight… circular reason will leave you behind
Now you go walkin' down the street… you hear that someone call your name
Say you know, you gotta learn to live and learn to love and learn to lose and
learn to live again
Run from the angel of night… now she’s waitin' for you
It’s your life… it goes down in the wink of an eye
It’s your life… still you sit as it’s passin' you by
Chargin' day for night… chargin' grey for white
Chase the firelight… wait for tomorrow we’ll leave you behind
Run to your angel tonight… now she’s waitin' for you
All you want… all you want
It’s your life… it goes down in the wink of an eye
It’s your life… don't you wait for the ashes to fly
Change your life… now don’t sit as the moments flash by
Save your life… she'll be yours for the wink of an eye
Trade your day for night… turn your grey to white
Fight with fire, fight… wait for tomorrow and kiss me goodbye
It’s your life… it goes down in the wink of an eye
It’s your life… don't wait for the ashes to fly
Don’t you break down
Don’t you break down
Don’t you get down
Don’t you get down
Don’t say there’s no reason
Say there’s no reason
Say there’s no reason
No reason, no why
Don’t get down
Don’t let down
