No One Else To Blame
(Howe, Berry)
Don't want to spend this day
Looking back on what I should have done
Don't want to let myself say
In the end what's done is done
Something inside won't deny
Won't let me push it aside
and just move on
Something so close to die heart
Doesn't easily just came and go
But to turn back, before the start
isn't the way that the feelings have flowed
And you counted on me
Now I won't let myself forget
The man I want to be
With one more chance to take the shame away
Though I know there's no escape
I know there's no one else to blame
I only have myself to blame
Don't turn me away
away
Trying to put the words right
Is all I have to start
To bring us closer
Then we could talk heart to heart
And you counted on me
Now I won't let myself forget
The man I want to be
With one more chance to take the shame away
Though I know there's no escape
I know there's no one else to blame
I only have myself to blame
Don't turn me away
away
I denied that inner trust
turned my head - looked away
As the future turned to dust
Now the hands that we held high
Are holding back the pain inside
But I know there's no one else to blame
You must think I'm half insane
To ignore a time when we were close oh,
did I throw it away
