I MUST HAVE BEEN BLIND
This Mortal Coil
Filigree & Shadow (1986)

Here I am believing words again.
Here I am trying to find a love again.
Here I am down on my knees again.
Praying for love that we used to know.
Both of us know how hard it is to love and let it go.
Both of us know how hard it is to go on living that way.
When so few understand what it means to fall in love.
And so few know how hard it is to live without it.
Lord I must have been blind, oh, I must have been blind.
Lord, I must have been blind.
Ah, to hold something real and not believe it.
To live in her life and never trust it.
To give all you know and never feel it.
And hold back each day until it dies away.
Both of us know how hard it is to love and let it go.
And both of us know how hard it is to go on living that way.
When so few understand what it means to fall in love.
And so few know how hard it is to live without it.
Lord I must have been blind, I must have been blind
Lord, I must have been blind, Yes, I must have been blind
