(Verse 1)
Guess my mind’s on rewind back to the time
When we were together
And I thought forever we would be,
The perfect couple (her and me)
Although it took a while for me to see
That wasn’t how it was gonna be

(Chorus)
But I’m thinking back to that time
When everything seemed just fine
Guess that’s why they say love is blind
(And at times it can be unkind)

(Verse 2)
I remember the scent of the perfume she used to wear
Frequently - ya see - my mind takes me there
To a time long before we began to fight
Back then everything was alright
But it changed like day from night
When we both became uptight

(Chorus)
Still I’m thinking back to that time
When everything seemed just fine
Guess that’s why they say love is blind
(And at times it can be unkind)

(Bridge)
It’s like seeing through a cloudy mirror
The reflection from our distant pass
It’s surreal but I can almost hear her
Before the dye was finally cast

(Chorus)
I’m thinking back to that time
When everything seemed just fine
Guess that’s why they say love is blind
(And at times it can be unkind)

(3rd Verse)
Do I miss her? (There’s no doubt I do)
That’s not the half, (If you only knew)
Everything that we’ve been through
I gotta think you would love her too
Now I’m facing the reality
Sadly she is no longer with me

(Chorus)
I’m thinking back to that time
When everything seemed just fine
Guess that’s why they say love is blind
(And at times it can be unkind)
These are song lyrics rather than technically a poem.
