If you're leaving, close the door
I'm not expecting people, anymore
Hear me grieving, lying on the floor
Whether drunk or dead, I really ain't too sure

   I'm a blind man
   I'm a blind man
   And my world is pale
   When a blind man cries
   Lord, you know
   There ain't a sadder tale

Had a friend once, in a room
Had a good time, but it ended much too soon
In a cold month, in that room
We found a reason, for the things we had to do

   I'm a blind man
   I'm a blind man
   Now my room is cold
   When a blind man cries
   Lord, you know
   He feels it from his soul

   I'm a blind man
   I'm a blind man
   And my world is pale
   When a blind man cries
   Lord, you know
   There ain't a sadder tale
