The song is "I'd Rather Go Blind" sung by Etta James and is featured on the album "Tell Mama" released in 1968.
Something told me it was over
when I saw you and him talking all night.
Something deep down in my soul said, ?Cry boy?,
when I saw you and him walking.
I would rather, I would rather go blind, child,
than to see you walk away, walk away from me.
Cuz you see I love you so much that
I don?t want to see you leave me baby, nonono, most of all,
I just don?t want to be free.
I was just, I was just sitting here thinging
of your kiss and your warm embrace, baby,
when the reflection in the glass that I been holding to my lips,
honey,
revealed the tears I had on my face.
So let me tell you,
I would rather, I would rather lose my eyes, yeah,
than to see you walk away from me.
Baby, baby, baby don?t ever leave me alone
Peace,
ll
