"I'd Rather Go Blind"

Something told me it was over

When I saw you and her talkin'

Something deep down in my soul said, "Cry, girl"

When I saw you and that girl walkin' around

Whoo, I would rather, I would rather go blind, boy

Than to see you walk away from me, child, no

Whoo, so you see, I love you so much

That I don't wanna watch you leave me, baby

Most of all, I just don't, I just don't wanna be free, no

Whoo, whoo, I was just, I was just, I was just

Sittin' here thinkin', of your kiss and your warm embrace, yeah

When the reflection in the glass that I held to my lips now, baby

Revealed these tears that are all on my face, yeah

Whoo-ooh and baby, baby, baby I'd rather, I'd rather be blind, boy

Than to see you walk away, walk away from me, yeah

And baby, baby, baby, I'd rather be blind, boy

Than to see you walk away, walk away from me

Baby, baby, baby

Baby, baby, baby
