Oh, brother, tell me what she's been into
Oh, my sister, give me one good reason to
Hey, darlin', why you shun your eyes from me
Oh, my God, now I've been blind, I cannot see

The wide-eyed times close tight your mind
(And) I will guide you, and die I would
For you, darlin' you know that
Just when I found you, I come crumblin' down
And still, love lives on through, lives on through you

Waiting for someone, like so many times before
It's raining in Richmond, like every after morning
And I'm shining down, upon the life around me and I'm
Thinking about you, where might you just be

The wide-eyed times close tight your mind
(And) I will guide you, and die I would
For you, darlin' you know that
Just when I found you, I come crumblin' down
And still, love lives on through, lives on through you

No, I won't divide you
Don't even think that's true
If you'd just listen
You'd hear life calling
Calling me from you

Oh, mother, tell me what she's been into
And now, oh father, give me one good reason to
Now my brother, why you shun your eyes from me
Oh my God now, I'm still blind, I cannot see

The wide-eyed times close tight your mind
(And) I will guide you, and die I would
For you, darlin' you know that
Just when I found you, I come crumblin' down
And still, love lives on through, lives on through you
