No matter what’s happening in your life, know this: someone out there is vibing to the same song, feeling the same emotion. We’re more connected than we think. 🌍🎧

"Something deep down in my soul said, cry girl" This is true. Your body knows before your mind when is truly over.

I’m just turned 64 remembering hearing this for the first time at 12 yrs old........on a transistor radio about the size of a deck of cards! Had it under my pillow waiting for KOMA AM radio stations to go full power! Love the old R&B tunes back then!

I really was born in the wrong era, sitting in 2026 with a bottle of beer with the earphones in and listening to songs like this wondering what has happened to music now

Lyrics<br><br>Something told me it was over<br>When I saw you and her talking<br>Something deep down in my soul said, cry girl<br>When I saw you and that girl, walking arround<br><br>I would rather, I would rather go blind boy<br>Than to see you, walk away from me child, and all<br>So you see, I love you so much<br>That I don't want to watch you leave me baby<br>Most of all, I just don't, I just don't want to be free no uh uh<br><br>I was just, I was just, I was just sitting here thinking<br>Of your kisses and your warm embrace, yeah<br>When the reflection in the glass that I held to my lips now baby (yeah, yeah)<br>Revealed the tears that was on my face, yeah<br>And baby, baby (baby, baby, bay) I would rather be blind boy <br>Than to see you walk away, see you walk away from me, yeah<br>Baby, baby, baby (baby, baby, bay) I'd rather be blind now (baby, baby, bay)

I once heard an old gangster say that it takes a man to cry. Now that I'm an old ex gang member. I start to cry when I hear this song. It's the pain, talent, and gift of this beautiful lady with an angelic voice.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
