The Black Crowes - Could I've Been so Blind Lyrics

How could I've been so blind?
So empty that I've never felt warm
Can I spell it out?
Turn myself out of my home

Lookin' like a fool
Feelin' even worse than it seems
Tryin' hard as nails
Believin' only in myself

And now it looks like innocence is gone
I know right and I know what's wrong
Feeling lonely that's the way it goes
Sometimes

But my greatest fear
Paint a smile from ear to ear
Alone and cryin'
Babe living like this is no better than dying

I tell you baby things are gonna change
Looking like we were caught out in the rain
Feeling lonely that's the way it goes
Sometimes

Could I ever have been so blind?
Could I ever have been so blind?
Could I ever have been so blind?
Could I ever have been so blind?

Could I ever have been so blind?
Could I ever have been so blind?

Hardest thing I ever had to do
Was stand up straight and tell it all to you
Look you right in the eye
Tell you baby, "Sorry but I have lied"

And now it looks like innocence is gone
I know right and I know what's wrong
Feeling lonely that's the way it goes
Sometimes

Could I ever have been so blind?
Yes, could I ever have been so blind?
Could I ever have been so blind?
Yes, could I ever have been so blind?
