(Love Is A) Blind Ambition Lyrics

In all the minutes of all the madness
and all the poetry between the good and badness
In all the hours of all the minutes
of all the thousand of loves that grew from within it

It was the heat of the night
and love is a blind ambition

In all the seasons of the years
Of all countless questions and seasons of fear
There’s an answer in all emotion
In all hungry moments a losing proposition

It's just the heat of the night
cuz love is a blind ambition

And all the minutes of all the madness
and all the poetry between the good and badness
and all the hours of all the minutes
and all the things you love and the love that grew from within it

It was the heat of the night
and love was a blind ambition

Cover art for (Love Is A) Blind Ambition lyrics by Concrete Blonde

As often as I've listened to this, I keep coming back to it being a rationalization (or a portrait of someone in denial and rationalizing) deep feelings for someone. Johnette almost seems to scorn any deeper meaning to the feelings, just saying it was "the heat of the night, and love was a blind ambition"...but it also can mean that someone is trying to tell themselves that while still feeling deeply. With Johnette, it could go either way. Freakin' great band, great song.
