INTRO: -- 3x's VERSE: The queen of the Nile She laid on her throne And she was drifting downstream On a barge that was burnished with g-o-ld Royal purple the sails So sweetly perfumed And poor Mark Antony's Senses were drowned And his future was doomed Chorus: He was blinded by love VERSE: The Philistines paid For Samson's blind rage The secrets that two lovers share Should never have been betrayed Chorus: He was blinded by love He was blinded by love BREAK: Now it's no use in crying or weeping You better lock up your soul for safe keeping Promise me VERSE: The poor Prince of Wales He gave up his crown All for the trivial pursuit of A parvenu second-hand lady So lovers beware If you lose your heart Careful now, don't lose your mind Don't mortgage your soul to a stranger Chorus: Don't be blinded by love Don't be blinded by love INSTRUMENTAL: play -- like first two lines of VERSE Chorus: Blinded by love Blinded by love OUTRO: -- until fade out any questions, comments or corrections e-mail me at: [email protected]
