Charlotte Cobb sings all the time. This time - the rest of you can hear her belt it outside the comfort of her four walls at home. Charlotte began her singing career at age 4 with Lane Murchison's rendition of The Yellow Rose of Texas which she proceeded to sing at a small restaurant in West Texas to an audience of locals and travelers. She has charmed us all with her voice since those pre-school days, continued with musical theater through middle school and is now expanding her horizons to the bluesier world of Etta James and Adele. When she is not singing, Charlotte plays a mean game of soccer and designs/crafts fabulous birthday cards for her friends.

lyrics
Something told me it was over
When I saw you and her talkin'
Something deep down in my soul said, 'Cry, girl'
When I saw you and that girl walkin' out
Whoo, I would rather, I would rather go blind, boy
Than to see you walk away from me, child, no
Whoo, so you see, I love you so much
That I don't wanna watch you leave me, baby
Most of all, I just don't, I just don't wanna be free, no
Whoo, whoo, I was just, I was just, I was just
Sittin here thinkin', of your kiss and your warm embrace, yeah
When the reflection in the glass that I held to my lips now, baby
Revealed the tears that was on my face, yeah
Whoo and baby, baby, I'd rather, I'd rather be blind, boy
Than to see you walk away, see you walk away from me, yeah
Whoo, baby, baby, baby, I'd rather be blind boy
When I saw you and her talkin'
Something deep down in my soul said, 'Cry, girl'
When I saw you and that girl walkin' out
Whoo, I would rather, I would rather go blind, boy
Than to see you walk away from me, child, no
Whoo, so you see, I love you so much
That I don't wanna watch you leave me, baby
Most of all, I just don't, I just don't wanna be free, no
Whoo, whoo, I was just, I was just, I was just
Sittin here thinkin', of your kiss and your warm embrace, yeah
When the reflection in the glass that I held to my lips now, baby
Revealed the tears that was on my face, yeah
Whoo and baby, baby, I'd rather, I'd rather be blind, boy
Than to see you walk away, see you walk away from me, yeah
Whoo, baby, baby, baby, I'd rather be blind boy
