Stay by me and make the moment last
Please take these lips even if I have been kissed
A million times
And I don't care if there is no tomorrow
I could die here in your arms
Even if the stars have made us blind
We're blind… we're blind
So blind in love

Do ba do ba do down down
Ba do ba do down down
Ba do ba do down down
Do ba do ba do down down
Ba do ba do down down
Ba do ba do down down
So blind in love…
Come on now Baby, Come on now Baby
Come on now Baby, Come on now Baby...
Come on now Baby…
Come on now Baby…
Come on now Baby

Sweet darling, don't you know
That we're no different to anyone
We stumble, we falter
But we're no different than anyone
Though the winter snow has melted down
Into a pool of silver water
We were standing in a thunder cloud
Dark as your hair… dark as your hair

Do ba do ba do down down
Ba do ba do down down
Ba do ba do down down
Do ba do ba do down down
Ba do ba do down down
Ba do ba do down down
So blind in love… Mm mm mm mm mm mm…
Oo oo oo oo, yeah!
So blind in love…
Come on now Baby, Come on now Baby
Come on now Baby, Come on now Baby...
Come on now Baby…
Come on now Baby…
Come on now Baby

Annie Lennox is an award-winning singer, songwriter and activist who has sold over 80 million records worldwide between her solo work and the duo Eurythmics. At seventeen, Lennox won a scholarship to London’s Royal Academy of Music to become a flutist, but dropped out after feeling that classical music was “far too competitive” and “didn’t fit my kind of personality”.

While working as a waitress at a health food restaurant in London, Lennox met Dave Stewart, with whom she formed the band Catch with singer-songwriter Peet Coombes. Catch released one single before adding two more members and changing their name to The Tourists. Under that name, the band scored five UK hits before Coombes' substance abuse broke the band apart.

Lennox and Stewart continued writing together – with Stewart moving from guitar to synthesizer and Lennox adopting an androgynous look – and formed Eurythmics. Within a few years, the duo was propelled into international stardom when “Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This)”, a single from their second album, became a top ten hit in nine countries.
