lyrics

02. blink of an eye

they say that trust comes easy
if you're green enough to believe
now you're out there chasing rainbows
how could someone be so naïve

did they raise you up to be famous
did they tell you good guys win
you were so transfixed on that big brass ring
that you made your mistakes all again

well, you don't know much about living
you just know enough to get by
the hardest thing about forgiving
is that a wink or a blink of an eye

was it too good to pass over
did you fall for all their lines
did you want it so bad that you had to be had
didn't read the warning signs

chorus

they say that trust isn't easy
and the pen's as sharp as the knife
in this lurid casino of existence
all you really got to wager is your life

about

Cletis Carr

Singer-songwriter Cletis Carr knows a good yarn. Especially when paired with a good melody and some gritty slide guitar.
