I once loved a blind man:
He loved to travel and see the world around him,
He loved to see the progress made in his physique,
He loved to look at all the pretty girls walk by.
I once loved a blind man:
He saw the buildings towering above,
He saw the darling flowers,
He saw the vast azure sky,
He saw me standing in front of him with arms opened wide.
I once loved a blind man:
But he couldn't see ...
He couldn't see what I had to offer,
He couldn't see how much I cared,
He couldn't see how I longed for his embrace,
He couldn't see how much I loved him.
I once loved a blind man:
And though he couldn't see how much he meant to me,
He opened my eyes to the man he truly was.
