Blame it on the years

Lying in the dark I can feel the air turn cold
I’ve seen it in your eyes I’ve seen it in your soul
Always leaves a mark to remind us as the years grow old
Memories change whatever we’ve been told

You can blame it on the years
Blame it on the things I’ve said
You can blame it on my weakness
Pin the whole thing on my head
But if you’re going to leave
If you’re going to cut and run
You’re going to need someone
You’re going to need someone

I walked inside your footsteps and you walked in mine
We were everything we’d lost another time
So we built these walls under skies of blue
And the light of love let it shine

Everything outside us wasn’t our concern
We wrote ourselves a story let the pages turn
And then the fire burns cold only déja vu
Another of the lessons I didn’t ever want to learn

You can blame it on the years
You can blame it on the things I’ve said
You can blame it on my weakness
Put the whole thing on my head
But if you’re going to leave
If you’re going to cut and run
You’re going to need someone
Yeah you’re going to need someone

The fire’s burned out there’s only déja vu
There’s a world of doubt that’s come to take the place
Of all the things that we knew
All the roads that led me to your loving arms
Don’t take me nowhere now
The smiling eyes that lit the world for me
Have disappeared somehow
And I’m scared ‘cos I know you inside out
You don’t have a heart that can do without
And you know that it’s true.

Blame it on the years
Blame it on the things I’ve said
You can blame it on my weakness
Pin the whole thing on my head
But if you’re going to leave
If you’re going to cut and run
You’re going to need someone
You’re going to need someone
