From the recording Snow Covered Mountains
Lyrics
Here I go again crossing the Potomac
With my paper boat and my note from home and my water wings
I don’t understand why Im afraid of falling in
I cant swim and I cant fly but I can dance around anything anytime
Ive been out and lost at sea tied to a heart that’s abandoned me
Ive given up and been made to bleed always wondering what’s up my
sleeve
And what I think I know what I need
Chorus:
(I’ll be) blindsided by the obvious
Blindsided while I think of you more than I should
What’s left of us like an albatross
Bad or good I turn to find – my blindside
There I am again like a blackbird on a fence
Losing my mind one feather at a time and still I fly away
Ive been out and up a tree fell down the well inside of me
Ive given out more than I can be always wondering when I’ll see
And when I think im happy
(I’ll be) blindsided by the obvious
Blindsided until I wise up
Whats left of us like a nail with rust
Boom or bust can I turn my mind – to my blindside
Bridge
(I’ll be) blindsided by the obvious
Blindsided even when ive done what I should
What left is dust like a coin tossed
Heads or tails it’s the Ides of us
My blindside … My blind side…
Blindsided…
