Blame It on Me
Love's Departure: Embracing the Bittersweet Symphony
Lyrics
You're standing there, that look in your eye
You are present with a certain expression in your eyes.
You're looking for good ways to tell my good-bye
You are searching for polite ways to say goodbye to me.
Something 'bout people, how they never know
There's something about people; they often don't realize they are loving someone and then letting them go.
They're loving somebody, then lettin' them go
People tend to love others and then part ways.
You're looking for reasons but there ain't no need
You're searching for reasons, but there's no necessity.
You can blame it on me
You can attribute the situation to me.
Blame it on me, I was the one
Blame me; I was the one at fault.
I had no right to turn it all wrong
I didn't have the right to turn everything wrong.
I held you too close, I couldn't let go
I held you too close, unwilling to let go.
Can't loose your cool these days I know
It's challenging to maintain composure in today's world.
I'll go on home and you can feel free
I'll go home, and you can be free to blame me.
To blame it on me
You can attribute the situation to me.
I am too rough, I work too hard
I am too rough, and I work too hard.
I got no cool friends, I drive an old car
I lack cool friends and drive an old car.
I'm not the picture of any man's dream
I'm not the ideal man in anyone's dreams.
Handful of bluebonnets, boots and old jeans
I embody simplicity with bluebonnets, boots, and old jeans.
I was a fool to think it could be
I was foolish to believe it could work out.
So blame it on me
So, attribute the outcome to me.
Blame it on me, I was the one
Blame me; I was the one at fault.
Acting like real life was some old love song
Acting as if real life were a nostalgic love song.
I held you too close, couldn't let go
I held you too close, reluctant to let go.
Can't loose your cool these days I know
It's challenging to stay composed in today's world.
Thinkin' forever, ever could be
Thinking that forever could be possible.
So blame it on me
So, attribute the outcome to me.
When you start looking for ways out of love
When you are seeking ways to end a love relationship.
Then I've been making mistakes by the dozen
I have been making numerous mistakes.
So if you want to leave
If you want to leave, you can blame me.
You can blame it on me
Blame me; I was the one at fault.
I held you too close, couldn't let go
I held you too close, reluctant to let go.
Can't loose your cool these days I know
It's challenging to stay composed in today's world.
So I'll go on home and you can feel free
I'll go home, and you can be free to blame me.
To blame it on me
Attribute the situation to me.
Blame it on me
Blame me.
Blame it on me
