Lyrics Edie Brickell & New Bohemians – I Had A Vision

I have been blinded
I can’t see a thing
Blinded by that day
Darkness fell on me

I had a vision of how our life would be
Rolling like a river, peaceful, wild, and free
I had a vision of how our life would go
A happy little family playing on the porch

Blinded by sorrow
And all of these tears
Blinded for so long
All these many years

I had a vision of how our life would be
Full of love and laughter and sweet harmony
I had a vision of how our life would go
All of our kids singing while you played piano

If I could lift this veil of darkness
If I could see my way back to you

I have been blinded
All the lights went dim
Blinded by someone
I can’t speak of him

I had a vision of how our life would be
Everything was beautiful, you were next to me
I had a vision of how our life would go
Everything was wonderful and I loved you so

If I could lift this veil of darkness
If I could see my way back to you

I had a vision of how our life would be
Everything was beautiful, you were next to me
