I Couldn’t See

[Verse 1]
I couldn't see why everyone kept telling me
You weren't the one, that you would break my heart
I couldn't see how you could be so mean to me

[Chorus]
And then there finally came the dawn
And I knew you must leave at dawn, and we were far apart
My eyes got so full of love, I couldn't see

[Refrain]
I couldn't see how you could take the love
That you and I were so fond of and go away
I never dreamed that you wanted to be free

[Chorus]
Now I've got so much time to sit around
And let your memories get me down, I cry all day
My eyes got so full of love, I couldn't see

[Verse 2]
I couldn't see the line of thinking
When they said my ship was sinking 'cause I loved you so
And then the bottom of the world caved in on me

[Chorus]
I've got an overdose of sorrow
And I'll still have it tomorrow, time goes much too slow
My eyes got so full of love, I couldn't see

[Refrain]
I couldn't see how you could take the love
That you and I were so fond of and go away
I never dreamed that you wanted to be free

[Outro]
My eyes got so full of love, I couldn't see
