Lyrics
There was a boy
A very strange, enchanted boy
They say he wandered very far
Very far, over land and sea
A little shy and sad of eye
But very wise was he
And then one day
One magic day he passed my way
And while we spoke of many things
Fools and kings
This he said to me
If I expected love, when first we 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
And if I cried a little bit, when first I learned the truth
Don't blame it on my heart
Blame it on my youth - oh!
Blame it on my youth
Blame it on my youth
I believed in everything
Like a child of three, oh-oh
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
And if I cried a little bit, when first I learned the truth
Don't blame it on my heart
The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love
Is just to love
Is just to love and be loved in return
