To say suprised isn't right
More like i've been blindsided
By the way you look tonight

And I've known you half my life
But visits are few and far between
Can't believe my eyes...

I remember when we could have been more than friends
What happened back then?
Silly me... Or was it all due to you?
I'll Just smile
Wondering why
And I think that I'd

Blame it on my youth
Blame it on High School
Blame it on the things I couldn't talk to you
About
And acting too cool
Pretending I couldn't see you when I would turn right back around

Comparing baby pics to ones when you're older
Daily massages for the chance to touch your shoulders
And can't forget
How well we connected
When calls hello and hugs goodbye were longer than expected

I should have taken my chances
Given it life
Given it a college try
Foot in my mouth my hand's heel on my head
I'll think about what we had

Blame it on my youth
Blame it on High School
Blame it on the things I couldn't talk to you
About
And acting too cool
Pretending I couldn't see you when I would turn right back around

Don't get me wrong, I like the way things are
I don't feel the need to have to really start again
Just glad to be here at your table of friends,
But placed slightly off the edge...

Blame it on my youth
Blame it on High School
Blame it on the things I couldn't talk to you
About
And acting too cool
Pretending I couldn't see you when I would turn right back around

======
Looking back,
I should have hit that...
Hit that...
Hit that high note.

Between you and me,
Instead of missing out on our opportunity
And as for the blame
I won't let it way on either side of my mind
Just to being shy and to you and i
Being much...
...too quiet

I won't blame it on you...
Blame it on my youth, blame it on high school...
I won't blame it on you...
