I laid a red rose
On your front porch
Wrote "I love you"
On a note
I rang the door bell
And turned to go
Baby, when the curtains moved
I couldn't believe the view

[Chorus:]
I saw the light in your window tonight
I saw two shadows holding each other tight
I know the truth when I look in your eyes
I saw the light in your window tonight

So take your cheatin' hands
Off my red dress
'Cause I ain't wearin'
This thing for you
I see you clearly now
And your lies, too
They say that love is blind
Baby, not this time

[Chorus]

Why, baby, why should I listen to you?
I cried, baby, cried, now I'm walking out the door

They say that love is blind, baby, not this time

[Chorus]
