This, like “Leader of the Pack”, appeared on the “Thrill Of It All” Target special edition, which is not readily available in the US and UK.
This acapella track is different from Sam Smith’s usual style and showcases their voice, with its increasing power as Sam matures. The Gospel backing singers...
[Verse 1]
I hear you call for me with a million eyes
You take us gospel but I don't deny
But you won't succeed, 'cause I've been tipped off
I just turned a blind eye for way too long
Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
[Verse 2]
People like me don't pick a fight with you
But underneath the bridge we gather two by two
If we don't succeed, well, at least we tried
Turned around to face you with a one blind eye
[Chorus]
I'm gonna carry you over (Carry you over)
Pull you in closer (Pull you in closer)
One by one, we marry the night
Sitting on the same boat on different sides
Staring at each other with our one blind eye
Ooh-ooh, ooh
One by one (Ooh), we marry the night
(Ooh) Sitting on the same boat (Ooh) on different sides
Staring at each other with our one blind eye
Sam has never commented on this song or explained why it was left off the standard edition of “The Thrill Of It All”
