Christine McVie - I'd Rather Go Blind

Something told me it was over
When I saw you and her talking.
Something deep down in my soul said cry girl,
When I saw you and that girl walking.

I would rather,
I would rather go blind, boy,
Than to see you walk away from me, child.
So you see, I love you so much
That I don't wanna watch you leave me, baby.
Most of all I just don't,
I just don't want to be free, no.

I was just, I was just,
I was just sitting here thinking
Of your kiss and your warm embrace,
When the reflection in the glass that I held to my lips, baby
Revealed the tears that was on my face.

And
Baby, Baby, I'd rather be blind, boy,
Than to see you walk away from me.

So nice. Love Christine...the first time I heard this years back, I had this picture of her sitting at a piano, playing in some little smokey jazz/blues joint, looking and sounding soooo good!
