He said, "don't you blink

Soak it up 'cause the next thing

You know you turn around and wonder where your whole life's gone

Remember, it's about the journey

Don't fill your days with worry

Sure them youngins drive you crazy, but you'll miss 'em when they're grown".

Oh, time ain't always your friend

It starts slow and gets faster towards the end

So fill up your heart with love, pass it on before you go

And thank the man upstairs that you were there to plant a seed and watch it grow.

True love and the gospel

Might take a while to blossom

But ya dig down in that garden, and you plant 'em anyways

Just let god be the farmer

He's got the sun and water

It's up to him to let 'em bloom

And let 'em see the light of day.

Oh, time ain't always your friend

It starts slow and gets faster towards the end

So fill up your heart with love, pass it on before you go

And thank the man upstairs that you were there to plant a seed and watch it grow.

Oh, time ain't always your friend

It starts slow and gets faster towards the end

So fill up your heart with love, pass it on before you go

And thank the man upstairs that you were there to plant a seed and watch it grow.
