We inhabited each other
Like it was some kind of disease
I thought that I was flying
But I was crawling on my knees
Everybody's got a blind spot that brings 'em down
Everybody's got a blind spot they can't get around
We mixed our blood together
Down on the muddy shore
I was looking for some lost part of myself
Prayed you might restore
Everybody's got a blind spot that brings 'em down
Everybody's got a blind spot they can't get around
So I dreamt my love was lost
And I lived, lived by luck and fate (1)
I burned each bridge I crossed
Until I, I stood at your gate
Everybody's got a blind spot brings 'em down
Everybody's got a blind spot they can't get around
Everybody's got a blind spot, baby, brings 'em down
Everybody's got a blind spot they can't get around
Like it was some kind of disease
I thought that I was flying
But I was crawling on my knees
Everybody's got a blind spot that brings 'em down
Everybody's got a blind spot they can't get around
We mixed our blood together
Down on the muddy shore
I was looking for some lost part of myself
Prayed you might restore
Everybody's got a blind spot that brings 'em down
Everybody's got a blind spot they can't get around
So I dreamt my love was lost
And I lived, lived by luck and fate (1)
I burned each bridge I crossed
Until I, I stood at your gate
Everybody's got a blind spot brings 'em down
Everybody's got a blind spot they can't get around
Everybody's got a blind spot, baby, brings 'em down
Everybody's got a blind spot they can't get around

C'est un thème dans lequel je m'étais enfermé à cette époque-là. Je ne sais pas pourquoi. Patti et moi passions du bon temps en Californie. Mais parfois, vous êtes enfermé dans une seule chanson, et vous tirez sur ce fil. J'avais Blind Spot, et j'ai tiré sur ce fil tout au long de l'album [...] Mais j'ai toujours aimé ces sessions pour Streets Of Philadelphia. Je pensais sortir cet album pendant le spectacle de Broadway. Je l'avais toujours mis de côté, mais je ne l'ai jamais jeté. (Bruce Springsteen.net)
