Something told me it was over
When I saw you and him talking
Something deep down in my soul said "Cry boy"
When I saw you and him out walking
I would rather, I would rather go blind girl
Than to see you walk away from me child
So you see I love you so much
I don't want to see you leave me baby
Most of all I just don't, I just don't want to be free

I was just, I was just sitting here thinking
Of your kiss and your warm embrace child
When the reflection in the glass
That I been held to my lips now baby
Revealed the tears I had on my face
I would rather, I would rather be blind child
Than to see you walk away from me
Baby, baby, baby I would rather go blind
Than to see you walk away from me
