At the age of 17
I felt what love could be
From the eyes of a young girl
And the way they looked at me,
But we grew and grew away
I never had to say--
Hey, I'd love you if I could
I love you
If I could
I'd love you, if I could--
You just hit me from a blindside,
You just hit me from a blindside.
You just hit me
blind
--
I met a girl of 24
Who'd never been in love before
Surprises were in store
When we began to court,
shared some pleasure
(her heart broke open
I'm always uncertain)
Now in ten years I'll be wandering
Some foreign street after midnight
And arm in arm with her husband
And shorter hair and wiser eyes
I'll pass by like a ghost in the night
She won't know if it's me or a look alike
I'll just hit her from a blindside
I'll just hit her from a blindside
Thinking I'd love you if I only could
Yes I'd love you if I only could
And if I had some sight I think I would
If I had some sight I think I would
And if I had some sight I know I would
If I had some sight
Had had some sight
Some sight
Now I never see what's coming
No
I never saw what was coming
