Lyrics

Young, on Christmas Day
Playin’ cricket in the backyard was gold
Grandpa didn’t wanna play
We put it down to him growin’ old

Blindfold couldn’t see, he needed help seriously
Blindfold couldn’t see, dementia took him quietly
Blindfold-ed, couldn’t see dementia in his head

Years later, Dad’s at home
Wouldn’t go anywhere on his own
Kept losing his brand new phone
Forgot things he should’ve known

Blindfold couldn’t see, he needed help seriously
Blindfold couldn’t see, dementia took him quietly
Blindfold-ed, couldn’t see dementia in his head

The one I love today
Is acting a little strange
Keeps losing his way,
Wonder what’s behind this change?

No blindfold I can see, he’s changin’ mysteriously
No blindfold I can see, won’t let him go quietly
Not blindfolded, maybe dementia is in his head

Won’t let him go quietly
