I Had A Vision - Steve Martin, Edie Brickell

I have been blinded

I can’t see a thing

Blinded by that day

Darkness fell on me

I had a vision of how our life would be

Rolling like a river, peaceful, wild, and free

I had a vision of how our life would go

A happy little family playing on the porch

Blinded by sorrow

And all of these tears

Blinded for so long

All these many years

I had a vision of how our life would be

Full of love and laughter and sweet harmony

I had a vision of how our life would go

All of our kids singing while you played piano

If I could lift this veil of darkness

If I could see my way back to you

I have been blinded

All the lights went dim

Blinded by someone

I can’t speak of him

I had a vision of how our life would be

Everything was beautiful, you were next to me

I had a vision of how our life would go

Everything was wonderful and I loved you so

If I could lift this veil of darkness

If I could see my way back to you

I had a vision of how our life would be

Everything was beautiful, you were next to me

I had a vision of how our life would go

Everything was wonderful and I loved you so
