Ten to One
Love's Blind Gamble: Eddie Boyd's Passionate Confession
Lyrics
You know I'm crazy about you, woman
You know I'm deeply infatuated with you, woman.
And I proved it all the time
I consistently demonstrate my love for you.
I'm crazy about you baby
I am passionately in love with you, baby.
And I proved it all the time
I continually prove my affection for you.
But I won't swear that you love me
However, I cannot confidently say that you reciprocate my love.
Because ten to one I may be blind
There is a significant doubt (ten to one odds) that you might not love me, and I may be unaware of it.
With my eyes wide open
Even though I am fully aware,
You lead me 'round like I'm blind
You manipulate and guide me as if I cannot see.
Everybody calls me crazy
Others perceive me as crazy,
But I don't pay that no mind
But I choose to ignore such judgments.
You know I'm crazy about you, baby
I am genuinely enamored with you, baby,
And I proved it all the time
And I consistently provide evidence of my love.
But I wouldn't swear that you love me
Yet, I hesitate to assert that you truly love me,
Because ten to one I may be blind
Given the possibility that I might be oblivious to the reality.
I've chanced robbing my bank for you
I am willing to take significant risks, even robbing a bank, for you.
If you'll ever need me babe
If you ever find yourself in need,
You know I will come to your rescue
I assure you that I will come to your aid.
I'm crazy about you, baby
Reiterating my intense affection for you, baby,
And I proved it all the time
And consistently demonstrating my love for you.
But I won't swear that you love me
Yet, I refrain from confidently asserting that you reciprocate my love,
Ten to one I may be blind
Given the significant likelihood that I may be unaware or blinded to the truth.
