Dave Stewart Blind Leading the Blind [Acoustic Version][Live] Lyrics

When the gypsies are down, and you're blinded on your feet
You stand up walking, but you know you're dead meat
The sky is busting, as it's near the break of day
When you're running out of options, when you're running out of the place
The leaves are cracking, waving on the tree
I beg you darling
Won't you say a prayer for me
I need your benediction
Cause I'm a soul in need
I can't sit down much low
Cause I'm on my knees

Like the blind leading the blind
After the wine, the tears they are gushing
Just like the blind leading the blind
Time after time, you won't let the love in

You ought to sharp this knife, you ought to find this place
You ought to shine as sun
Everybody's in your shades
So funny to you, dripping honey from your tongue
But you never know what's going on when the day is done
There is a sadness just burning in your bone
I twist and track down with your force to go
You need a hand of friendship to steady up your heart
So hang up to me baby, I'll show you down the path
Just like the blind leading the blind
Asking me why you won't let the love in
Oh, like the blind leading the blind
Only to find your feelings are not mine

Just like the blind leading the blind
After the wine, your tears they are gushing, gushing, yeah
Just like the blind leading the blind
Just like you'll find it's leading to the fame, the fame, oh oh yeah
Mmm...
Just like the blind leading the blind
Time after time, it's leading to the fame, the fame, the fame
Like the blind leading the blind
After the wine, the tears they are gushing, gushing, gushing
