Something told me it was over,
When I saw you and her talking.
Something deep down in my soul said,
Cry Girl (Cry cry),
When I saw you and that girl walking
around,
(whoo)
I would rather,
I would rather
go blind boy
Than to see you
walk away from me
Child no
(whoo)
So you see I love you
so much that I don't
want to watch you leave me
Baby
Most of all i just don't
I just don't want to be free
no (whoo whoo)
I was just,
I was just,
I was just sittin' here
thinking of you Kiss and your
warm embrace yeah
When a reflection in
a glass that I held to
my lips now baby (yeah yeah)
revealed these tears
that are on my face
(whoo)
And baby, baby (baby)
I'd rather be blind boy
Than to to see you
walk away
walk away from me
yeah (repeat)
(baby baby baby)
I'd Rather Go Blind is written by Ellington Jones, Billy Foster. ✔️
What is the meaning behind I'd Rather Go Blind lyrics?
When we ask ourselves what the song was truly meant to express, the song "I'd Rather Go Blind" that features Beyoncé as the main character, depicts the hurt of a situation where a lover is unfaithful and the one being betrayed chooses not to see the truth because of the strong love between them. The analogy of not wanting to see the partner's departure but rather being blind, represents very strongly the emotional bond and the difficulty of separation no matter how painful it might be. The lyrics of I would rather be blind highlight love, loss, reflection, despair, and agonies mostly. On the other hand, the song recognizes the roles of heartbreak and loss, love and longing. The lyrics are very expressive of love and heartbreak feelings without resorting to any improper language, themes, or even violence, so it is a song that can be appreciated by all ages.

I really hope everyone knows this is not a Beyonce song, but Etta James. And the movie is entertaining, but completely historically inaccurate. Etta James was famous before they signed her.
