Don't Blame Me (1958 Version)

King Crimson · Other Songs - King Crimson

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.



I can't help it

If that doggone 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.



(interlude)



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.



(interlude)



Blame all your charms

That melt in my arms,

But don't blame me.
