David Olney If My Eyes Were Blind Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If my eyes were blind
The darkest night could 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

[Verse 2]
Should my voice grow weak
Only you could hear the voice inside me
Should my voice grow weak
Then never with a word would I deny thee
I would not speak
Should my voice grow—

[Verse 3]
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 gеntle as a lamb Should my mind grow dim

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 4]
When my youth is gone
In my еyes 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

[Verse 5]
When my body dies
Darling, I could never leave you lonely, no
My spirit shall arise
To comfort and to care for you only
To sympathize
When my body dies

[Outro]
When my youth is gone
Should my mind grow dim
Should my voice grow weak
If my eyes go blind
