Seeing Things Lyrics
I find it hard to shed a tear
You brought it all on yourself my dear
Wrong, yes I may be
Don't leave a light on for me
'Cause I an't comin' home
It hurts me baby to be alone
Yes, it hurts me baby
A hundred years will never ease
Hearing things I won't believe
I saw it with my own two eyes
All the pain that I can't hide
And this pain starts in my heart
And this love tears us apart
You won't find me bent down on my knees
Ain't bendin' over backwards baby
Not to please
'Cause I'm seeing things for the first time
I'm seeing things for the first time, oh yeah
I'm seeing things for the first time
In my life, in my life
I used to dream
Of better days that never came
Sorry ain't nothin' to me
I'm gone and that's the way it must be
So please I've done my time
Lovin' you is such a crime
You won't fine me down on, on my knees
Won't fine me over backwards baby
Just to please
'Cause I'm seeing things for the first time
I"m seeing things for the first time
Seeing things for the first time
Oh I'm seeing things for the first time
Yeah, seeing things for the first time
I'm seeing things for the first time
Yeah, I'm seeing things for the first time
In my life, in my life
You brought it all on yourself my dear
Wrong, yes I may be
Don't leave a light on for me
'Cause I an't comin' home
It hurts me baby to be alone
Yes, it hurts me baby
Hearing things I won't believe
I saw it with my own two eyes
All the pain that I can't hide
And this pain starts in my heart
And this love tears us apart
You won't find me bent down on my knees
Ain't bendin' over backwards baby
Not to please
I'm seeing things for the first time, oh yeah
I'm seeing things for the first time
In my life, in my life
Of better days that never came
Sorry ain't nothin' to me
I'm gone and that's the way it must be
So please I've done my time
Lovin' you is such a crime
You won't fine me down on, on my knees
Won't fine me over backwards baby
Just to please
I"m seeing things for the first time
Seeing things for the first time
Oh I'm seeing things for the first time
Yeah, seeing things for the first time
I'm seeing things for the first time
Yeah, I'm seeing things for the first time
In my life, in my life

not only a relationship, this can also apply to any situation you were blind in...a situation where you didn't know what was really going on, and now you have seen things for what they are and you are leaving and not changing/giving in for anything.
amazing song + yes, underrated.
One of the best and most underrated of the Black Crowes songs. This song is great to listen to just after breaking up with someone, 'cause that's what it's about. It's about breaking up with someone, even though maybe you don't really want to, cause you're finally seeing things in the relationship (and life maybe) for what they really are. You're saying that "You won't find me on my knees/aint bending over backwards just to please" you're ending the relationship with your pride and dignity in tact. You won't pander to the other person.
i looooove this soooonnngggg!!
yeah I agree about it being an underrated song. But when every song they write is gold its hard to have em all up there
I love this song! Absolutely underrated! Especially if you have ever been subjected to the "saw it with my own two eyes" scenario!
