Blame It On The Night

David Hasselhoff · Other Songs - David Hasselhoff

Blue eyes that shine in the dark

Lead me deep into your soul

Starting a fire in my heart

Raging out of control

We slowly come undone

And when tomorrow comes



We can blame it on the stars up in the sky

We can blame it on the moonlite in your eyes

We can blame it on anything you wanted to

You can blame it on me

I can blame it all on



You and the night and the music

Made magic in the air

One touch gave in to another

Like no-one else was there

We're past the point of rescue

Couldn't stop it if we wanted to



We can blame it on the stars up in the sky

We can blame it on the moonlite in your eyes

We can blame it on the fire that was burnin' bright

We could blame it on love

Or we can blame it on the night



Blame it on the night

Blame it on the night

Don't know how this thing started

But I know how it's gonna end



Blame it on the night

With its driving rhythm and soaring vocals, it became an immediate hit, reinforcing his status as a pop icon and solidifying his connection to the "New Wave" movement of the late 1980s. The recording captures the energetic optimism and theatrical style that would become synonymous with his public persona. As a staple of his discography, the track remains a cultural touchstone, often associated with summer nights and the era of television infomercials that helped propel his career to global prominence.
