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.
So you see, I love you so much
and I don't want to watch you leave me baby,
but most of all, I just don't want to be free.
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.
I would rather be blind boy
Than to see you walk away from me.
I would rather be blind boy
Than to see you walk away from me.
