One Takes The Blame

(アルバム： Atlanta Blue - 1984)

When it's over
And God knows as well as we it is
When we pack up and stack up
What's hers and what's his

When we make up
The stories that cover up the shame
They never will believe
We simply fell out of love
So one takes the bow one takes the blame

It won't be easy
To throw away so many years and smile
But don't feel guilty
We gave it our best for awhile

But the story we tell our friends
Must always be the same
'Cause they never would believe
It was really no one's fault
One takes the bow one takes the blame

One takes the bow one takes the blame
That's the way you have to play the game
Your friends need someone
They can talk about and blame
And God forbid for my friends need the same
Ain't that a shame

When we get lonely
And lonely we'll get now and then
Just remember that somewhere
We both still have a friend
Love's not forever
And ours went as gently as it came
So for all the years I've loved you
And you know I really loved you
You take the bow I'll take the blame
You take the bow I'll take the blame
