In the blink of an eye

Oh where does time go to 
this will be the 41st christmas since I wed
I know time passes Oh so fast
But I can’t get this out of my head

Where on earth has my life went to
All those years have disappeared
In a blink of an eye my three children
Have become adults that I have reared

I know I’m getting old now
Because when i was just a tot
I can remember thinking just how 
Ancient looking my parents had got

They would only be in their fifties
So not as old as me
Tho it is a fact that people appeared much older then than they would be

If the next 41 years race by as fast
I hate to say this but its true
I will only be a memory
To my loved ones that has passed
