Blinded
James Carrington Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can hear in your voice that you're not here at all
I can tell by your walk that you want to be elsewhere
I just don't understand why you let yourself fall
I can dry up the tears and get on with my life
I can wash out the past and start over again
I could live in a world without somebody's problems
So I don't understand why I can't let go
No I don't understand why I love you so
Blinded by your mystery it's taking me over
Blinded by your love for me I want to let go
But it's complicated you got me on my knees and I don't want your sympathy
I can see by the flame in your eyes that you're angry
I can tell by the cross that you bear that you're lost
I can only imagine the silence in your house
So I don't understand why you can't let go
And I don't understand why you love me so
Blinded by your mystery it's taking me over
Blinded by your love for me I want to let go
But it's complicated you got me on my knees and I don't want your sympathy
Seeing you smile, seeing you move again
Learning to to cope, being yourself, walking away knowing it's good again
Honey I'm scared of the end

The chorus of the song centers around the idea of being blinded by love, with the singer acknowledging that it's taking over their life and making it difficult to let go. However, they also recognize that the situation is complicated and that they don't want their partner's sympathy or anyone else's judgment. The song ends with the singer expressing fear about the potential end of the relationship, suggesting that despite their struggles, they're not quite ready to give up on it just yet.
Overall, the lyrics of 'Blinded' offer a poignant reflection on the often-contradictory emotions that can arise in relationships, particularly when it comes to the difficulty of letting go even when it's necessary.

I remember pretty good this episode. I was 12 years old and I regenerated myself in health farm and some kids was gaping like the idiots in the course of the detonation. I was happy the nurses allowed us to watch Dynasty. It's remarkable how many children generally watched this spectacular series.

John Forsythe such a legend, he really was Blake Carrington
Lucie Krausová
This plot seams really interesting to me. It ends with beautifull scene where Blake tells Krystle that he can see again. I love it but I have to think about Blake's ability to say the truth. Did she ever find how long he lied to her? 🤔
Sekena Mcmurren
Nope Blake kept that secret! 😒
