Blind
Jason Derülo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Since the first date when you got close my heart
Would just stop thought me and you together would end
Up on top, you changed me for better for worse I know
I was caught up alway's put you first I never once thought
You would be triflin' but oh I was blinded
I was like oh oh oh never wanna let you go go goI was open before I was open before but
Now I know, love made me blind so I couldn't
See all the lies you told were right in front of me
Since love made me blind you made a fool of me
You made it look so perfect when it wasn't meant to be
Your love made me blind
I gave all of my trust didn't think being faithful was asking
To much but I'm good glad that I know now I was fooled but
Fate let me see how they say every tear has it's reasons
Every smile has it's own season never once thought
You'd would be triflin' but oh I was blinded
Your love me blind
Your love made me blind
Your love made me blind
Your love made me blind
Cause I felt your lips pressed against mine thought the
Sweet smell of your perfume was all mine, I love the
Way you scream my name
That love made me blind so I couldn't see
All the lies you told were right in front of me
Since love made me blind you made a fool of me
You made it look so perfect when it wasn't meant to be.
Your love made me blind, your love made blind, your love made me blind,
Your love made me blind.
The lyrics to Jason Derülo's song Blind seem to be about a failed relationship where the singer is now able to look back and see the faults they couldn't see before. The opening lines express regret at loving someone who has caused pain and heartbreak. The singer thought the relationship would end up on top, but it didn't. The line "you changed me for better for worse" implies that the changes were not all positive. The singer then confesses that they were "caught up" and put the person they loved first, which led to them being blind to the fact that their partner was lying and being unfaithful.
The chorus repeats that love made the singer blind to the lies their partner told and that they were made a fool of, thinking the relationship was perfect when it was not. The line "I love the way you scream my name" is a haunting reminder of the passionate moments shared but is now tarnished by the realization that it was based on lies. The final line, "Your love made me blind," ties together the idea that it was the love and passion they felt that blinded the singer to the truth about the relationship.
Overall, Blind is a bittersweet song about the pain of a failed relationship and the realization that love can make us blind to red flags in a partner's behavior.

Never thought that I'd say wish I didn't love you ever
I never expected to regret loving you
Since the first date when you got close my heart
Ever since we started dating, you filled my heart with joy
Would just stop thought me and you together would end
I thought we were meant to be together forever
Up on top, you changed me for better for worse I know
Being with you changed me, for better or for worse
I was caught up alway's put you first I never once thought
I was so into you that I neglected myself
You would be triflin' but oh I was blinded
I never imagined you'd be unfaithful, but I was naive
I was like oh oh oh never wanna let you go go go
I didn't want to ever lose you
I was open before I was open before but
I was trusting before, but things have changed
Now I know, love made me blind so I couldn't
I now realize that my feelings for you clouded my judgment
See all the lies you told were right in front of me
I was oblivious to your lies, even though they were obvious
Since love made me blind you made a fool of me
Because of my blindness, you were able to take advantage of me
You made it look so perfect when it wasn't meant to be
You deceived me into thinking our relationship was perfect
I gave all of my trust didn't think being faithful was asking
I trusted you completely and didn't think faithfulness was too much to ask
To much but I'm good glad that I know now I was fooled but
I realize now that I was fooled, but I'm happy to know the truth
Fate let me see how they say every tear has it's reasons
I believe that everything happens for a reason, even my tears
Every smile has it's own season never once thought
I never truly realized that even happiness is temporary
Cause I felt your lips pressed against mine thought the
The feeling of your lips on mine made me ignore your flaws
Sweet smell of your perfume was all mine, I love the
I loved the sweet scent of your perfume and thought you belonged only to me
Way you scream my name
I loved the way you expressed your passion for me
Your love made me blind
Your love caused me to ignore your deceit and become blind to the truth
Your love made me blind
Your love caused me to turn a blind eye to your faults
Your love made me blind
Your love caused me to be unable to see your true intentions
Your love made me blind
Your love caused me to be ignorant of the reality of our relationship
