Blinded by love

By:

The Rolling Stones

from album

Steel Wheels

Print without graphics

The queen of the Nile
She laid o her throne
And she was drifting downstream
On a barge that was burnished with goldRoyal purple the sails
So sweetly perfumed
And poor Mark Antony's
Senses were drowned
And his future was doomed

He was blinded by love
The Philistines paid
For Samson's blind rage
The secret that two lovers share
Should never have been betrayed

He was blinded by love
He was blinded by love

Now it's no use crying or weeping
You better lock up your soul for safe keeping
Promise me

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

Don't be blinded by love
Don't be blinded by love
Blinded by love
Blinded by love
