Blind Alley Lyrics by Gary Wright

Who I Am

1975

Turning in circles
I was waiting for some kind of sign
Afraid I might lose my way
I lived moment to moment
Tryin' to not change my mind
I knew it was better to stay
Truth sometimes is hard to see when it's starin' at you
But I had to own up to it what else could I do
I looked for love down a blind alley
Chasin' my hopes in a beautiful face
I looked for love down a blind alley
Waitin' for you to rescue me from that lonely place
Out on the edge
Was a dangerous place for my soul
Nowhere to go but to you
Still I kept up the endless chase
Always frightened to ever consider
Where was it all leading me to
Desperate hours had filled my lonely yesterdays
I was waiting for you to lead me from the maze
I looked for love down a blind alley
Chasin' my hopes in a beautiful face
I looked for love down a blind alley
Waitin' for you to rescue me from that lonely place
Truth sometimes is hard to see when it's starin' at you
But I had to own up to it what could I do
I looked for love down a blind alley
Chasin' my hopes in a beautiful face
I looked for love down a blind alley
Waitin' for you to rescue me from that lonely place
Love down a blind alley
I looked for love, I looked for love
I looked for love down a blind alley
Chasin' my hopes in a beautiful face
I looked for love down a blind alley
Waitin' for you to rescue me from that lonely place
Love down a blind alley
I looked for love, I looked for love
I looked for love down a blind alley
Waitin' for you to rescue me
From that lonely place
Love down a blind alley
I looked for love, I looked for love
I looked for love down a blind alley
Waitin' for you to rescue me
From that lonely place
Love down a blind alley
I looked for love, I looked for love
I looked for love down a blind alley
Waitin' for you to rescue me
From that lonely place
