Love is blindness, I don't want to see

Won't you wrap the night around me?

Oh, my heart, love is blindness.

In a parked car, in a crowded street

You see your love made complete.

Thread is ripping, the knot is slipping

Love is blindness.

Love is clockworks and cold steel

Fingers too numb to feel.

Squeeze the handle, blow out the candle

Love is blindness.

Love is blindness, I don't want to see

Won't you wrap the night around me?

Oh, my love,

Blindness.

A little death without mourning

No call and no warning

Baby, a dangerous idea

That almost makes sense.

Love is drowning in a deep well

All the secrets, and no one to tell.

Take the money, honey...

Blindness.

Love is blindness, I don't want to see

Won't you wrap the night around me?

Oh, my love,

Blindness.
