Bruce Springsteen - I Wish I Were Blind Lyrics






I love to see the cottonwood blossom
In the early spring
I love to see the message of love
That the bluebird brings
But when I see you walkin' with him
Down along the strand
I wish I were blind
When I see you with your man

I love to see your hair shining
In the long summer's light
I love to watch the stars fill the sky
On a summer night
The music plays you take his hand
I watch how you touch him as you start to dance
And I wish I were blind
When I see you with your man

We struggle here but all our love's in vain
Oh these eyes that once filled me with your beauty
Now fill me with pain
And the light that once entered here
Is banished from me
And this darkness is all baby that my heart sees

And though this world is filled
With the grace and beauty of God's hand
Oh I wish I were blind
When I see you with your man

    I adore this song anyway, we all have that one lost love 😢

  5. J.... R....

    This song touches my heart... because, what’s the reason of to see all beauty in creation if you don’t have someone to share these things? I think that’s why God saw that was not good to man being alone, and created another person, a woman, even more beautiful, like all creation.

    to paraphrase..."The Boss singing for the lonely,
    hey, that's me, and I want her..only"

    Mine is quite a similar one. I got 'the one' & then I let 'the one' go..... Life's funny bro...

    I love to see the cottonwood blossom
    In the early spring
    I love to see the message of love
    That the bluebird brings
    But when I see you walkin' with him
    Down along the strand
    I wish I were blind
    When I see you with your man
    I love to see your hair shining
    In the long summer's light
    I love to watch the stars fill the sky
    On a summer night
    The music plays you take his hand
    I watch how you touch him as you start to dance
    And I wish I were blind
    When I see you with your man
    We struggle here but all our love's in vain
    Oh these eyes that once filled me with your beauty
    Now fill me with pain
    And the light that once entered here
    Is banished from me
    And this darkness is all baby that my heart sees
    And though this world is filled
    With the grace and beauty of God's hand
    Oh I wish I were blind
    When I see you with your man
