Etta James
I’d Rather Go Blind
Something told me it was over
When I saw you and that girl talking
Something deep down in my soul said, "cry girl"
When I saw you and that girl, walking out

Oh, I would rather, I would rather go blind, boy
Than to see you walk away from me, yeah
'Cause you see, I love you, I love you so much, babe
That I do not want to watch you leave, no

But most of all, I just don't
Oh, I just, I just don't want to be free, no
I was just, I was just, yeah, I was just sitting here thinking
Of your kiss and your warm embrace, yeah

When the reflection in the glass that I held to my lips now baby
Revealed the tears that was on my face, yeah
Oh, I would rather, I would rather go blind, boy
Than to see you walk away from me, yeah

And baby, baby, I'd rather go blind, boy
Than to see you walk away from me, yeah, hey, hey
And baby, baby, I'd rather go blind, boy, yeah
Than to see you walk away from me, yeah
