Blame Me
Osborne Brothers · Osborne Brothers 1 (1956-1968) [Bear Family] [1993]
Blame me if you want to
I'll just keep on, keep on, keep on loving you
Lie to me, find someone new
But I'll just keep on, keep on, keep on loving you.
I met you not so long ago and oh how I felt
Every time you looked me your eyes would cast the spell
But that spell became a broken dream for your love was never true
And no matter what they say I'll just keep on loving you.
--- Instrumental ---
Blame me if you want to
I'll just keep on, keep on, keep on loving you
Lie to me, find someone new
But I'll just keep on, keep on, keep on loving you.
Blame me...
