I'd Rather Go Blind - Bettye Swann

Something told me it was over When I saw you and her talking Something deep down in my soul said cry girl When I saw you and that girl walking I would rather I would rather go blind, boy Than to see you walk away from me, child 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 want to be free, no I was just, I was just I was just sitting here thinking Of your kiss and your warm embrace, When the reflection in the glass that I held to my lips, baby Revealed the tears that was on my face And Baby, Baby, I'd rather be blind, boy Than to see you walk away from me

Waged war all night, wish it was just a dream Just wanted holy water washing over me Can't win this fight without your company So shed some light and set my mind at ease Would you be my brother Fold a cord, keep warm, secure, brother Would you be my brother And I'll be yours, I'll be yours Sleepless dark night and I don't wanna be Mind numb unsure just help me to believe Trapped inside the lies of self-despise I couldn't see It's meant to break me to the shape that I'm supposed to be Would you be my brother Fold a cord, keep warm, secure, brother Would you be my brother And I'll be yours, I'll be yours Would you be my brother Fold a cord, keep warm, secure, brother Would you be my brother And I'll be yours, I'll be yours

It's a new dawn, a new day Sun's come up and night's gone away I've been praying for hours Just to see the break of day Cause for five nights in a row I've been tossing and turning all on my own But now I think it's time I learn to let it go My feet firmly planted fighting temptations Been wondering if I'm ever gonna make it And when I start to doubt I'm ever going to shake it off I feel it rise within me, feel it rise within me, I feel it rise within me Making freedom rise My feet are tapping, my hips are shaking My hearts not breaking and if I'm not mistaken There's a part of me thinking, I'm gonna be okay My feet firmly planted fighting temptations Been wondering if I'm ever gonna make it And when I start to doubt I'm ever going to shake it off I feel it rise within me, feel it rise within me, I feel it rise within me Making freedom rise It's a new dawn, a new day Sun's come up and night gone away It's a new dawn, it's a new day It's a new dawn, it's a new day
