lyrics

Don't Blame It On Love (lyrics by Paul Levinson, 1966)

You thought that you could play around
and treat love like a game
But now you say love's let you down
cause your sunshine's turned to rain

Oh now it's sorrow time again
Tears are falling everywhere
Seems you've reached your rainbow's end
and found sadness waiting there

(chorus)
Don't blame it on love, my friend
Don't blame it on love
cause on its own it's always kind
It's the lovers who are blind
Don't blame it on love

The snowflakes melt upon your face
and your heart is bitter cold
Your arms reach out to embrace
but there's nothing left to hold

(chorus)
