JAMES, Etta & JORDAN, Ellington

I’d rather go blind

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 her 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

That I don't want to see you leave me baby

But most of all I 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 now baby

Revealed the tears that were on my face

Baby, baby, baby, I would rather go blind.
