BODY LIKE BRAILLE

by Thomas M. Franklin

I've been to heaven
I've been through hell
It's torn my soul, ther's nothing to sell
Been burned by fire
Been drenched by rain
And through it all, i was screaming your name

Now they could take my eyes
And it's just as well
'Cause i can read your body like braille

I've been beat and bruised
My spirit battered down
I've been made a fool
I've been made a clown

Now i'm blind with tears
And it's just as well
'Cause i can read your body like braille
