Etta James (1938 – 2012)

Something told me it was over
when I saw you and her talking,
Something deep down in my soul said ‘cry girl’
when I saw you and that girl, walking
I would rather, I would rather go blind boy
Than to see you, walk away from me
So you see, I love you so much
That I don’t want to watch you leave me baby
Most of all, I just don’t want to be free no

I was just, I was just, I was just sitting here thinking
Of your kisses and your warm embrace
When the reflection in the glass that I held to my lips now baby
Revealed the tears that was on my face, yeah
And baby, baby, I would rather be blind, boy
Than to see you walk away, see you walk away from me, yeah
Baby, baby, baby, I’d rather be blind now

Bedankt, Etta…
