Eyesight To The Blind / Why Does Love Got To Be So Sad? Lyrics
[Part 1: Eyesight To The Blind]
[Verse]
You talk about your woman
I wish you could see mine
You talk about your woman
I wish you could see mine
Every time she starts to loving
She brings eyesight to the blind
Her daddy gave her magic
I can tell by the way she walks
Daddy gave her lots of magic
I can tell by the way she walks
Every time she starts shaking
The dumb begin to talk
She has got the power to heal you
Never fear
She has got the power to heal you
Never fear
Just one word from her lips
And the deaf can hear
[Part 2: Why Does Love Got To Be So Sad?]
[Verse]
You talk about your woman
I wish you could see mine
You talk about your woman
I wish you could see mine
Every time she starts to loving
She brings eyesight to the blind
Her daddy gave her magic
I can tell by the way she walks
Daddy gave her lots of magic
I can tell by the way she walks
Every time she starts shaking
The dumb begin to talk
She has got the power to heal you
Never fear
She has got the power to heal you
Never fear
Just one word from her lips
And the deaf can hear

[Intro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 1]
Gotta find me a way to get me back to yesterday
How can I ever hope to forget you?
Won't you show me a place where I could hide my lonely face?
I know you're gonna break my heart if I let you
[Chorus]
Why does love got to be so sad?
Why does love got to be so sad?
Why does love got to be so sad?
Why does love got to be so sad?
[Verse 2]
Like a moth to the flame, like a song without a name
I've never been the same since I met you (woah, oh)
Like a bird on the wing, got a brand new song to sing
I can't keep from singing about you
[Chorus]
Why does love got to be so sad?
Why does love got to be so sad?
Why does love got to be so sad?
Why does love got to be so sad?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 1]
Gotta find me a way to get me back to yesterday
How can I ever hope to forget you?
Won't you show me a place where I could hide my lonely face?
I know you're gonna break my heart if I let you
[Chorus]
Why does love got to be so sad?
Why does love got to be so sad?
Why does love got to be so sad?
Why does love got to be so sad?
[Verse 2]
Like a moth to the flame, like a song without a name
I've never been the same since I met you (woah, oh)
Like a bird on the wing, got a brand new song to sing
I can't keep from singing about you
[Chorus]
Why does love got to be so sad?
Why does love got to be so sad?
Why does love got to be so sad?
Why does love got to be so sad?
[Guitar solo]
[Verse 3]
I'm beginning to see what a fool you've made of me
I might have to break the law when I find you (yes, I will now)
Stop running away, I got a better game to play
You know I can't go on living without you, no
[Chorus]
Why does love got to be so sad?
Why does love got to be so sad?
Why does love got to be so sad?
Why does love got to be so, ooh
[Outro]
Woah
Why does love got to be so
Why does love got to be so
[Verse 3]
I'm beginning to see what a fool you've made of me
I might have to break the law when I find you (yes, I will now)
Stop running away, I got a better game to play
You know I can't go on living without you, no
[Chorus]
Why does love got to be so sad?
Why does love got to be so sad?
Why does love got to be so sad?
Why does love got to be so, ooh
[Outro]
Woah
Why does love got to be so
Why does love got to be so
