Blinded By Love
The queen of the NileShe laid on her throneAnd she was drifting downstreamOn a barge that was burnished with gold
Royal purple the sailsSo sweetly perfumedAnd poor Mark Antony'sSenses were drownedAnd his future was doomed
He was blinded by love
The Philistines paidFor Samson's blind rageThe secrets that two lovers shareShould never have been betrayed
He was blinded by loveHe was blinded by love
Now it's no use crying or weepingYou better lock up your soul for safe keepingPromise me
The poor Prince of WalesHe gave up his crownAll for the trivial pursuit ofA parvenu second-hand lady
So lovers bewareIf you lose your heartCareful now, don't lose your mindDon't mortgage your soul to a stranger
Don't be blinded by loveDon't be blinded by love
Blinded by loveBlinded by love
