Blame It On The Times

As you sit there in your loneliness Confused as you must be I'm sure a dozen questions come to mind And if you're wondering why I left you After all you've done for me Guess you'll have to blame it on the times The many times you had your way No matter what the cost And the many times you took for granted Love you now have lost And if I hurt you, darlin' I don't mean to be unkind Guess you'll have to blame it on the times That small conceited world of yours Could never understand That to want to stand alone is not a crime And if for one time in my life I'm acting like a man I guess you'll have to blame it on the times Blame it on the many times A hiding place I'd seek Afraid to say what's on my mind And ashamed for being weak So if at last I'm seeing After so long being blind I suppose you'll have to blame it on the times
