Put The Blame On Me - Matchbox

Put The Blame On Me

Matchbox

(Steve Bloomfield, Chiswick/Ace, 1978)

We went out to a party Saturday night
You danced with someone else and held him so tight
I told myself: "don't worry, it's okay"
But you know it hurts to see you dance that way
Oh babe, oh babe, put the blame on me

I haven't told you lately that I love you
That doesn't mean to say that I've been untrue
My guess is, you think I'm not your lover
And that's why you're trying hard to find another
Oh babe, oh babe, put the blame on me

Well, I used to take you out and hold you under the moon
So many nights I can't forget
You look so nice and wear the sweetest perfume
Everything a man could want you had and yet
I took you for granted, yes I know that it's bad
And now I realize, stop making me sad
Oh, I want you back inside my heart
And I never should have lost you from the start
Oh babe, oh babe, put the blame on me
(Yeah!)

Oh babe, oh babe, put the blame on me
Well, I used to take you out and hold you under the moon
So many nights I can't forget
You look so nice and wear the sweetest perfume
Everything a man could want you had and yet
I took you for granted, yes I know that it's bad
And now I realize, stop making me sad
Oh, I want you back inside my heart
And I never should have lost you from the start
Oh babe, oh babe, put the blame on me
Oh babe, oh babe, put the blame on me
Oh babe, oh babe, put the blame on me
