I Was Blind Lyrics

I was blind and I could not see
That you were gettin' away from me
But now I know that you are gone
I live by the night
And slumber through the day
Because life don't seem worth livin' anyway
If I could only see
Life would be so miserable to me
Tell me why my love want leave me in misery
Oh, now I haven't be true
But this one I want to be my wife
So baby please, please think of you and me
If I could only see
Life would be so miserable to me
Why would the one I love want to leave me in misery
Oh, haven't been true all of my life
Ah, but this one I want, want her to be my wife
So baby please, baby please think of you and me

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
