Blame It on My Youth
You were my adored oneThen you became the bored oneAnd I was like a toy that brought you joy one dayA broken toy that you preferred to throw awayIf I expected love when first we kissed, blame it on my youthIf only just for you I did exist, blame it on my youthI believed in everything like a child of threeYou meant more than anything all the world to meIf you were on my mind all night and the day, blame it on my youthIf I forgot to eat and sleep and pray, blame it on my youthAnd if I cried a little bit when first I learned the truthDon't blame it on my heart, blame it on my youth Aus Songtexte Mania
