Don't Blame Me - Desmond Dekker

I think about that summer fallin' way too fast Yeah, we were just a season, yeah, too damn hot to last I held you for a moment, let the moment slip away And I know you won't forgive me for the things I didn't say Now, it's too late (now, it's too late) Yeah, it's too late (yeah, it's too late) It's getting late Blame me for the endin', hell, blame me for the start Blame me for the wall you had to build around your heart Blame me for the hurtin', all the hell I put you through You can swear it's all my fault and I won't blame you if you do But don't blame me, don't blame me Don't blame me for lovin' you You were more than I could handle, you were more than I deserve You loved me like the devil, sang the songs I never heard I was drowning in an ocean, I was in over my head If I could just go back, I'd undo everything I did But it's too late (but it's too late) Yeah, it's too late (yeah, it's too late) Yeah, it's getting late Blame me for the endin', hell, blame me for the start Blame me for the wall you had to build around your heart Blame me for the hurtin', and all the hell I put you through You can swear it's all my fault and I won't blame you if you do Don't blame me, don't blame me Don't blame me for lovin' you Is it too late? Is it too late? Say it's not too late Blame me for the endin', hell, blame me for the start You can blame me for the wall you had to build around your heart Blame me for the hurtin', and all the hell I put you through You can swear it's all my fault and I won't blame you if you do But don't blame me, don't blame me Don't blame me for lovin' you (Don't blame me, baby, baby) (Don't blame me, baby, baby) (Don't blame me, baby, baby) don't blame me for lovin' you (Don't blame me, baby, baby) (Don't blame me, baby, baby) (Don't blame me, baby, baby) don't blame me for lovin' you (Don't blame me, baby, baby) (Don't blame me, baby, baby) (Don't blame me, baby, baby) don't blame me for lovin' you

Ever since the lucky night I found you I've hung around you just like a fool Falling head and heels in love like a kid out of school. My poor heart is in an awful state now But it's too late now to call a halt So if I become a nuisance it's all your fault! Don't blame me for falling in love with you I'm under your spell but how can I help it! Don't' blame me! Can't you see when you do the things you do! If I can't conceal the thrill that I'm feeling, Don't blame; me. Ican't help it if that doggoned moon above Makes me need someone like you to love! Blame your kiss as sweet as a kiss can be And blame all your charms that melt in my arms But don't blame me. I like every single thing about you Without a doubt you are like a dream In my mind I find a picture of us as a team Ever since the hour of our meeting I've been repeating a silly phrase Hoping that you'll understand me one of these days. Don't blame me for falling in love with you I'm under your spell but how can I help it! Don't' blame me! Can't you see when you do the things you do! If I can't conceal the thrill that I'm feeling, Don't blame; me. Ican't help it if that doggoned moon above Makes me need someone like you to love! Blame your kiss as sweet as a kiss can be And blame all your charms that melt in my arms But don't blame me.
