Love Is Blind
Donny Montell Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I cannot control my heart, it's crying for you
Loneliness is killing me, I'm helpless without your love
And the way you touch someone, I can't understand
Now it's tearing me apart, I want you back
And it's made me realise how far I am
My endless melody I play for me and you
Love is blind, it's true, I'm on my knees for you
I'll give it all I care to have you back again
Love is blind
I just can't believe you're gone and I let it slip away
Well I can't believe I was the one who caused you a pain
I said you should know down inside she didn't mean a thing to me, yeah
What can I do to win back your heart and make you to stay?
I'm talking 'bout, talking 'bout my love
Talking 'bout, talking 'bout
Love is blind, it's true nobody is like you
My endless melody I play for me and you
Love is blind, it's true, I'm on my knees for you
'Cause I'll give it all I care to have you back again
Love is blind

When the day becomes the night
You know that I think of you
And I cannot control my heart
It’s crying for you
Loneliness is killing me
I’m helpless without your love
Knowing when you touch someone else
I can’t understand
Now it’s tearing me apart, I want you back
And it’s made me realise just what I had
[Chorus]
Love is blind, it’s true, nobody is like you
My endless melody I play for me and you
Love is blind, it’s true, I’m on my knees for you
‘Cause I’d give it all I can to have you back again
Love is blind
I just can’t believe you’re gone and I let it slip away
I can’t believe I was the one who caused you pain
I said you should know deep down inside
She didn’t mean a thing to me, yeah
What can I do to win back your heart and make you to stay?
I can’t believe, can’t believe you’re gone
I can’t believe…
[Chorus]
Love is blind, it’s true, nobody is like you
My endless melody I play for me and you
Love is blind, it’s true, I’m on my knees for you
‘Cause I’d give it all I can to have you back again
Love is blind

Wearing a bedazzled blindfold while singing about how love is blind, having the beat drop do acrobatics and being super serious the whole time.
This is weird Eurovision power ballad perfection
