If you're leaving, close the door
   I'm not expecting people any more
   Hear me grieving, I'm lying on the floor
   whether I'm drunk or dead
   I really ain't too sure
   I'm a blind man
   I'm a blind man
   and my world is pale
   when a blind man cries
   Lord you know, there ain't no sadder tale
   Solo
   Had a friend once, in a room
   Had a good time,
   but it ended much too soon
   In a cold month, in that room
   we found a reason for the things
   we had to do
   I'm a blind man
   I'm a blind man
   now my room is cold
   when a blind man cries
   Lord you know, he feels it from his soul
   Solo
   Repeat Chorus
