[English]

Too caught up in the moment, fantasy is gone

Came down from the high

Stare me down with the tension of a thousand daggers

Are you surprised?

Here comes the ache, too much to take

You got to let it go

(Let it go)

Give me a break, it's my mistake

Darling, I should've known

(I should've known)

I couldn't help it, sorry I'm selfish but blame it on my heart

Blame it on the beating

No alibi, I had to try, baby blame it on my heart

Blame it on my beating heart

Trust I wanted to tell you

No, I never meant for you to be hurt

Tongue-tied-up my escape plan

Now I got a million bridges to burn

Here comes the ache, too much to take

You got to let it go

(Let it go)

Give me a break, it's my mistake

Darling, I should've known

(I should've known)

I couldn't help it, sorry I'm selfish but blame it on my heart

Blame it on the beating

No alibi, I had to try, baby blame it on my heart

Blame it on the beating

All the things I said

Cross them out in red, honey blame it on my heart

Blame it on the feeling

Don't make it worse

I can't reverse it so blame it on my heart

Blame it on my beating heart

Blame it on the feeling

(Blame it, blame it, blame it)

Don't make it worse now

Blame it on the beating

(Blame it, blame it)

All the things I said, hey

Na na na, na na, na na

(Na, na)

Na na na, na na, na na, na

(Na, na)

Na na na, na na, na na

(Na, na)

Na na na, na na, na na

I couldn't help it, sorry I'm selfish but blame it on my heart

Blame it on the beating

No alibi, I had to try, baby blame it on my heart

Blame it on the beating

All the things I said

Cross them out in red, honey blame it on my heart

Blame it on the feeling

Don't make it worse

I can't reverse it so blame it on my heart

Blame it on my beating heart
