I'd Rather Go Blind (Live)

This song's dedicated to the late Etta James.
May God rest her soul.

Something told me it was over
when I saw you and him walking
Something deep in my soul said "Cry boy"
when I saw you walking away now baby

I would rather go blind babe (rather go blind)
than to see you walk away from me
See I love you so much I don't want to see you leave me baby
Most of all, I just don't, I don't want to be free

I was just, I was just, I was just sitting there thinking
about your kiss and your warm embrace, now, darling
when the reflection at the glass that I held to my lips now baby
revealed the tears I had on my face

I would rather go blind baby (rather go blind)
than to see you walk away from me
Something told me it was, it is over baby
when I saw you with her, you were talking

Something deep down in my soul just said "Go ahead and cry now girl"
when I saw you and that same girl just walk on by
See I would rather go blind, boy
than to see you walk away from me

Yea, see I love you so much
I don't want to see you leave
And one more thing, and one more thing, don't want to be free, no, babe
Oh, I was just, I was just, I was just
sitting here thinking,
yea, about your kiss and your warm embrace, baby
Yea, a reflection of the glass on your lips baby
revealed the tears on my face
Yea, I would rather, I would rather, I would rather, rather go blind, boy
Yea, I would rather, yea I would rather, I would rather, rather go, rather go, rather go blind,
Ooh, go blind, I would rather, oh rather, rather, I would rather, I would rather, rather, be blind, girl.
