If you're leaving close the door. br I'm not expecting people anymore. br Hear me grieving, I'm lying on the floor. br Whether I'm drunk or dead I really ain't too sure. br br I'm a blind man, I'm a blind man br And my world is pale. br When a blind man cries, br Lord, you know there aint no sadder tale. br br Had a friend once in a room, br Had a good time but it ended much too soon. br In a cold month in that room br We found a reason for the things we had to do. br br I'm a blind man, I'm a blind man, br Now my room is cold. br When a blind man cries, br Lord, you know he feels it from his soul.
