Blinded (When I See You) Lyrics


Just an old friend coming over now to visit you and
That's what I've become
I let myself in though I know I'm not supposed to but
I never know when I'm doneAnd I see you fogging up the mirror
Vapor 'round your body glistens in the shower
And I want to stay right here
And go down on you for an hourOr stay, and let the day just fade away
In wild dedication, take the moment of hope
And let it run, and never look back at all the damage
We have done now to each other, to each other, to each other'Cause when I see you, it's like I'm staring down the sun
And I'm blinded
There's nothing left to do
Still I see youI never believed that things they happen for a reason and
They never go as planned
I wanted to thank you for a vision that was lost that you returned but
You're past where you understandNow her appetite is blown, little else is known
Except she's a little angry, grabs a towel and looks away
And heat fades with the day

And I fall down on what to sayOh, something clean let me be clever, hey oh well, whatever
But that's not what I mean
When where we've been has left us burned
Still I won't turn now from a fight, you know I'll never winSo when I see you, you know all the things I've done
Well I'm blinded
Like I'm staring down the sun
When I see you, when I see you, when I see you
It's like I'm staring down the sun, yeahHey, I'm blinded
Hey, I'm blinded
Hey, I'm blindedTime passes and it tell us what we're left with
We become the things we do
Me, I'm a fool, spent from defiance, yeah, you got me but
I didn't give up on youIcarus is not a tee shirt or a swan song, no
He is born again and it's not easy being me
When I can't promise I will mend or bend
When you believe that we are fixed now from our birthAnd I've just fallen back to earth
Still you know I'll try again 'cause I believe that we are lucky
We are golden we have stolen manners
In the days when we were oneSo when I see you, despite all that we've become
I'm still blinded
But I'm still staring down the sun
When I see you, when I see you, when I see you, when I see youOh yeah, I'm still staring down the sun
Oh yeah, I'm still staring down the sun
Oh yeah, I'm still staring down the sun
I'm blindedWhen I see you, when I see you, when I see you

Third Eye Blind is a rock band formed in the mid 1990s in San Francisco, California. The original members were Stephan Jenkins (singer, songwriter, electric guitar), Kevin Cadogan (guitar), Adrian Burley (drums), and Jason Slater (bass guitar). The band's original line-up changed several times before the release of the group's debut album, and again shortly after the release of the band's second album Blue — at which point the band's main guitarist Kevin Cadogan was released from the band under circumstances that still elicit controversy among fans. Third Eye Blind's current line-up is Stephan Jenkins (vocals, electric guitar), Abe Millett (bass guitar), Brad Hargreaves (drums), and Kryz Reid (electric guitar). More recently, bassist Arion Salazar has not been playing with the band, and his future as part of the quartet is unclear. Leo Kremer has been filling in for Salazar during concerts, but it is not yet known if he will become a full-time member. For a time the band also featured ex-Smash Mouth drummer Michael Urbano and early Primus drummer Tim ''Curveball'' Wright.

Third Eye Blind recorded their first demo in 1993. In 1996, the band landed an opening gig for Oasis, prior to which performance, so the legend goes, Third Eye Blind was warned that the crowd might throw food at them. As it turned out, however, they were invited out for an encore, even after Oasis had already played, bringing Liam Gallagher to tears and sparking the friendly rivalry that would form between the two bands. The band was paid double what they were promised for the gig. Afterwards, the band found themselves in a bidding war among record labels, in which they settled on Elektra because they believed it offered the most artistic freedom. Stephan Jenkins' outspoken behavior after signing the deal earned him the title of "the biggest mouth in music" by many critics. Jenkins has spoken out many times against several different artists, including a heated feud with Rob Thomas of the band Matchbox Twenty.

A fourth album, tentatively titled Ursa Major, was released August 2009. Shortly after the band has slated the release of a follow-up album, Ursa Minor. Only Jenkins' lyrics and vocals are left to be finished; all instrumental work is reportedly complete. Recent live performances have revealed a majority of the new tracks being worked on, including "Don't Believe a Word," "Lay Back (and the Water Will Hold You)," "In the Skin," "Summer Town," "Second Born," "(You Really) Don't Like Me Now" aka "Campfire," "Monotov's Private Opera," "Break Me," "Stevie Ray Vaughan," "Red Star," and "Standing Up For You." Other tracks mentioned for the album by Fredianelli are "Away," "A Sharp Knife," "Captain of Emo," "Swimming," and "Jesse 2k." He also confirmed that "Lay Back" was scrapped. A number of previously unreleased recordings were made available, including "Persephone," "Carnival Barker" (an instrumental), and numerous instrumental sessions declined by Jenkins for inclusion on the fourth album.
