Goin' Blind lyrics - Corey Smith

The spotlight ain't treatin' me well

It gets up in my face, can't see nothin' else

I start losin' my place, keeps ringin' my bell

Till I can't leave the stage without somebody's help, or I'll fall

Been gettin' worse every night

Like a big puff of smoke slowly coverin' my eyes

Screwin' up my head's got me squintin' all the time

The people I know are gettin' hard to recognize, and I'm scared

I'm goin' blind

I bet you didn't notice

Goin' blind

Hardly anybody knows, yeah

My wife and my kids

Some family and friends

The ones that drive me round

And hold the lamps that guide me in

Goin' blind

I'm too young for feelin' so elderly

Will somebody please come and read this to me?

I'm goin' everywhere in the passenger seat

Tell me what kind of man can't get his kids from point A to B?

I'm goin' blind

Like I might not see ya later

I'm goin' blind

Askin' everyone for favors

I don't know where I'd be

Without my family and friends

The ones that drive me round

And hold the lamps that guide me in

They've been tryna keep me optimistic

"Surely the doctors are gonna fix it"

And even if they don't, hey, it'll be alright

But I've had trouble with the bright side

Goin' blind

I've had to really think it over

Goin' blind

Oh, it's nearly scared me sober

I've been leanin' on the Lord

My family and friends

The ones that drive me round

And hold the lamps that guide me in

Goin' blind

Brought the heart back into focus

I'm goin' blind

So much love I'd failed to notice

Goin' blind, mmh-hm-hm
