The Ballad of Blind Heart Wallow

I fell thru the skylight window
when I found out what you were up to
I knew you weren't being faithful
but I had no proof to bring to you
but boy was I a fool

Who was that man that was with you
how could you do that to me
so many years I was faithful
now with this brand new revelation
can't help all these feelings
my poor heart broke in two

I tried to catch you cheating
now I wish I never had
the blind lives a different life
sometimes its just better not knowing
oh they say ignorance can be bliss

You say you won't be home early
I'll be cooking dinner just for one
honey I know where you are going
you're heading for the cheating side of town
you know my poor heart is weeping
as I change the door locks now

Cuz you won't be cheating
treating me just like a fool
honey you might of got away with it before
but now I'm looking at you harder
eyes wide open to your wayward charms

I fell thru the skylight window
I knew you weren't being faithful
who was that man that was with you
sometimes its just better not knowing
oh they say ignorance can be bliss

You say you won't be home early
honey I know where you are going
you're heading for the cheating side of town
you know my poor heart is weeping
this is brand new revelation
as I change these door locks woman
while you're out with that man

Why don't you let him take you in now darling
you spend way more time with him
I've already helped you with you're packing
you see I've had all night while I was waiting
hoping you would have a change of heart
no I didn't want to lose this loving
I just didn't know it was already gone

Oh they say ignorance can be bliss
Sometimes its just better not knowing
it's all a brand new revelation
the blind live a different life
but it changes when you catch them cheating
cuz it breaks you poor heart in two

Oh they say ignorance can be bliss
Sometimes its just better not knowing
the blind surely live a different life
and it's all a brand new revelation
when your woman not being faithful
and becomes just another ex-wife
