If I expected love when first we kissed,
Blame it on my youth.
If only 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 my heart,
Blame it on my youth.

If I cried a little bit
When first I learned the truth,
Don't blame it on my heart,
Blame it on my youth.
