Lyrics
Well I should have seen it coming
Little things were going wrong
She was leaving at strange hours
She was always gone too long
But then I would hear her laughter
And I'd see her pretty face
And the light inside her eyes
Would always leave me in a daze
CHORUS
A man goes blind
To the things he knows
When a woman's eyes
Fill his empty soul
And a man can't see
When he's had enough
A man goes blind
When he needs her love
Now the full moon is rising
On this Arizona plain
And the beauty of the moonlight
Helps to take away the pain
I can see everything so clearly
Even though it's late at night
So when we were together
Why could I never see the light
CHORUS
A man goes blind
To the things he knows
When a woman's eyes
Fill his empty soul
And a man can't see
What she's guilty of
A man goes blind
When he needs her love
BRIDGE
Now the moonlight's brought the vision
back into my eyes
With hindsight for wisdom
Any fool can be wise
1ST CHORUS
