Blind Man

(Tyler/Perry/Rhodes)

 

I took a course in hallelujah

I went to night school for the blues

I took some stuff they said would cool ya

but nothing seemed to light my fuse

but it's all in the past

like a check that's in the mail

she was a tall whiskey glass

I was an old hound dog that just loved to chase his tail

until I met a blind man

who taught me how to see

a blind man

who could change night into day

and if I can

I'm gonna make you come with me

because here comes the sun and we'll be chasing all the clouds away

 

I've had some lovers like a joy ride

some things are never what they seem

my heaven's turned into a landslide

I thank God I woke up from the dream

because here comes the sun and we'll be chasing all the clouds

the way bees chase honey

and drink all the flowers dry

we'll be saving us a little money

and if that don't do it, yeah, I know the reason why

don't make no sense lightin' candles

there's too much moonlight in our eyes

because here comes the sun

ain't no surprise

ain't no doubt about it

gonna open up your eyes
