Gladly Go Blind
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I was walking down the avenue
When I realized that I was only thinking of you
Yes, you're always on my mind
But you're the one I never find
And I would gladly go blind
I would gladly go blind
I would gladly go blind
If I could see you one more time
And I was looking through a magazine
When I found myself comparing you to every beauty queen
You made them all look bad
I never knew the love I had
I would gladly go blind
Yes, I would gladly go blind
Oh, I would gladly go blind
If I could see you one more time
Told me you were leaving
If things didn't change
Told me you were leaving
I know you told me
I was crying in my sleep last night
The tears were on my pillow
In the morning light
I don't think I can stand the pain
Come on, let me hold you once again
And I would gladly go blind
I would gladly go blind
I would gladly go blind
If I could see you baby, yea, yea, yea
Gladly go blind (yes I would now, baby)
Gladly go blind (take my side, babe)
Gladly go blind
If I could see you just one more time
I just want to smell that sweet perfume
Touch your hair, now, baby
Just one more time
