Something told me it was over
When I saw you and him talking all night
Something deep down in my soul said, "Cry, boy"
When I saw you and him walking

I would rather, I would rather go blind, child
Than to see you walk away, walk away from me

'Cause you see, I love you so much
I don't want to see you leave me, baby, no no no
Most of all, most of all, most of all
I just don't want to be free

I was just, I was just sitting there thinkin'
Baby, of your kiss and your warm embrace
When the reflection in the glass
That I been holdin' to my lips now, honey
Revealed the tears, ah, revealed the tears I had on my face
So let me tell ya

I would rather, I would rather
Rather, rather, rather, rather, rather, rather
Lose my eyes, yeah
Than to see you, Lord, walk away from me

Baby, baby, baby, baby
Don't ever leave me, love
