(duet with Smokey Robinson)
SMOKEY:
We had our chance
Lord knows how we've try
To keep our love alive
To keep it strong
So, if I hurt you, girl
Try and understand
We can't go on pretending
When we know it's ending
Blame it on love
On the memories that lingering the night
Love never showed us how to make it right
So, baby
Let's blame it on love tonight
BARBARA:
We had our time
It went by so fast
We try to make it last (make it last)
To make it right
SMOKEY:
We gave it all we had
Girl, don't look so sad
TOGETHER:
Let's go operating (let's go operating)
A happier ending
We can blame it on love
On the memories that lingering the night
Love never showed us how to make it right
SMOKEY:
So, baby
BARBARA:
So, baby
TOGETHER:
Let's blame it on love tonight
SMOKEY:
There ain't no use in loving on
Girl, it's time to let it be
TOGETHER:
We did all we could
And it won't do no good
To blame it on you and me
We can blame it on love
On the dreams we share that won't come true
On the feeling that our love would always
see us through
SMOKEY:
So, baby
BARBARA:
Oh, baby
TOGETHER:
Let's blame it on love tonight---
SMOKEY:
Ohh...
BARBARA:
We can
TOGETHER:
Blame it on love
SMOKEY:
On the dreams we share that won't come true
BARBARA:
On the dreams we share
SMOKEY:
Ooh
TOGETHER:
On the feeling that our love would always
see us through
SMOKEY:
Oh, baby
BARBARA:
Whoa-oh...
SMOKEY:
We can blame it on love
BARBARA:
Blame it on love
SMOKEY:
Blame it on love
