Meaning of Blinded By The Light (Club Mix) lyrics by Manfred Mann's Earth Band

December 30, 2022

The song "Blinded By The Light (Club Mix)" by Manfred Mann's Earth Band is about life's many journeys. The opening lines reference how the protagonist is "wrapped up like a deuce" and a "runner in the night" – implying he is running away from his life and its responsibilities. The song then continues to describe a number of scenarios in which the protagonist is driven to do something out of the ordinary. In each scenario he is warned not to look into the light, literally or figuratively, as it will blind him and disorient him. The chorus of "Oh, she was blinded by the light/Wrapped up like a deuce/Another runner in the night" captures the restlessness that comes when one follows impulse and risk and must then deal with the consequences. Ultimately, the song is a reflection on taking chances and the uncertainty that comes when one gives in to one's desires.
