I know that now. 

I knew that then. 

I was hoping we could be more than just friends.

I'd rather go blind than to see you two together again.

I'd rather lose sight than to see her with your last name.

I'd rather go deaf than to hear you call her babe.

I'd rather be lame than to see you give her that ring.

I'd rather be alone than to ever love someone like I loved you, again.
