i don’t blame you at all ’cause you played it cool
you don’t owe me a thing ’cause i played the fool
no no no no no
i’m only payin’ the price for a trip i took to paradise
’cause i looked into a pair of eyes
and what i thought was the look of love
was only hurt in disguise
too bad i didn’t realize oh but don’t apologize no ’cause
i don’t blame you at all ’cause you played it cool
i should’ve did it myself
you don’t owe me a thing ’cause i played the fool
no no no no no
i think it’s pretty plain holdin’ you would take a ball chain
every bet i made was all in vain
’cause what i thought was an ocean of love was just a wee drop of rain
too bad that it couldn’t rain oh but you don’t have to explain no ’cause
i don’t blame you at all ’cause you played it cool
i should’ve did it myself
you don’t owe me a thing ’cause i played the fool
no no no no no
i don’t blame you at all ’cause you played it cool
that’s the thing to do
you don’t owe me a thing ’cause i played the fool
no no no no no
i said what i thought was sure to last to last was just a minute instead
too bad that i got misled ah but you don’t have to hang your head no ’cause
i don’t blame you at all ’cause you played it cool
i should’ve did it myself
you don’t owe me a thing ’cause i played the fool
no no no no no
i don’t blame you at all ’cause you played it cool
’cause that’s the thing to do
you don’t owe me a thing ’cause i played the fool
no no no no no
