Fhir a bhata
Don't like being left alone
when i'm travelling on the road
I meet too many old ghosts
Souls without a home
They all ask me my direction
Then they all fall in behind
But you can't trust a boy in love
the blind can't lead the blind
And love is blind or so it seems
to make me of you my dreams
and after all is said and done
a blindman's dreams are not much fun.

There are times when I feel lost
I think to love you would be fine
But I promise not to hurt you
with those old mistakes of me
then there comes a time for leaving
then you ask why love's unkind
but asking me is just like asking
the blind to lead the blind
Love is blind or so it seems
to make me of you my dreams
and after all is said and done
A blindman's dreams are not much fun

Well you can move to Boston
take a job in a small hotel
But that won't be the answer you'll still hear St Patrick's bell.
And when you're awake each lonely night
and long for peace of mind
you know that for love to last
the blind must lead the blind
love is blind or so it seems
to make me of you my dreams
and after all is said and done
a blindman's dreams are not much fun.

Though the ledge on which you stand
isn't wide enough for two
theres a blindman at the window
and he wants to get to you
when he asks you your direction
you sit down - but never mind
I've found a line that I can trust
the blind can't lead the blind
love is blind or so it seems
to make me of you my dreams
and after all is said and done
a blindman's dreams are not much fun...
