If my eyes were blind the darkest night would never hold a mystery If my eyes were blind, I’d hold your features fast within my memory Within my mind, if my eyes were blind
Should my voice grow weak, only you could hear the voice inside me Should my voice grow weak, but never with the word would I deny thee I would not speak, should my voice grow weak
Should my mind grow dim and innocent as on the day God made me Should my mind grow dim, I’d love you like a child or a baby I’d be gentle as a lamb, should my mind grow dim
When my youth is gone, in my eyes you shall remain a beauty When my youth is gone, in my ears I’ll hear you singing sweetly The sweetest song, when my youth is gone
And When my body dies, darlin’ I could never leave you lonely My spirit shall arise to comfort and to care for you only To sympathize, when my body dies
When my body dies When my youth is gone Should my mind grow dim Should my voice grow weak If my eyes were blind.
