Martin Scorsese Best of the Blues movie - I'd Rather Go Blind lyrics

rate me

Song by Etta James<br /><br>

Something told me it was over<br>

When I saw you and her talkin'<br>

Something deep down in my soul said, 'Cry, girl'<br>

When I saw you and that girl walkin' around<br>

<br>

Whoo, I would rather, I would rather go blind, boy<br>

Then to see you walk away from me, child, no<br>

<br>

Whoo, so you see, I love you so much<br>

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

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

<br>

Whoo, whoo, I was just, I was just, I was just<br>

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

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

Revealed the tears that was on my face, yeah<br>

<br>

Whoo and baby, baby, I'd rather, I'd rather be blind, boy<br>

Then to see you walk away, see you walk away from me, yeah<br>

Whoo, baby, baby, baby, I'd rather be blind...<br>
