And if I was a blind man I could feel the changin' of the day.I bought you that old guitar still hoping you might sing. And I bought you that old guitar just hoping you might sing.But you took that old guitar and you left that diamond in the rain.And I treat you like a princess, but you keep one foot out the door.
