Blind by Third DayEach and every single dayI was throwing life away with
questionsSearching for a better wayAlways looking in the wrong directionMy heart I could not trustCause it lies to me too muchAnd my mind just couldn’t Understand it allHow could I have been so blind to not
see youThe more that I look the more I findYou’ve led me to the truthThat I am nothing if I’m without youYou opened my eyes and helped me
to findHow could I have been so blindI have fallen once againEvidently made the wrong decisionStumbling in the darkNow I need you here to be my vision
How could I have been so blind to not see you
The more that I look the more I findYou’ve led me to the truthThat I am nothing if I’m without youYou opened my eyes and helped me
to findHow could I have been so blindI have fallen once againEvidently made the wrong decisionStumbling in the darkNow I need you here to be my visionMy heart I cannot trustCause it lies to me too muchAnd my mind just cannot understand
it allYou took my heart and you changed itWith your words of lifeYou took my eyes and you opened
themAnd gave me sight
