You were my adored one

Then you became the bored one

I was like a toy

That brought you joy one day

A broken toy

That you preferred to throw away



If I expected love

When we first kissed

Blame it on my youth

If only just for you I did exist

Blame it on my youth

I believed in everything

Like a child of three

You meant more than anything

All the world to me



If you were on my mind

All night and day

Blame it on my youth

If I forgot to eat and sleep and pray

Blame it on my youth

If I cried a little bit

When first I learned the truth

Don't blame it on the stars

Don't blame it on your smile

Don't blame it on my eyes

Blame it on my youth
