I was at a dance when he caught my eye |
|
Standin' all alone lookin' sad and shy |
|
We began to dance, swaying' to and fro |
|
And soon I knew I'd never let him go |
|
Blame it on the bossa nova with its magic spell |
|
Blame it on the bossa nova that he did so well |
|
Oh, it all began with just one little dance |
|
But then it ended up a big romance |
|
Blame it on the bossa nova |
|
The dance of love |
|
(Now was it the moon?) |
|
No, no, the bossa nova |
|
(Or the stars above?) |
|
No, no, the bossa nova |
|
(Now was it the tune?) |
|
Yeah, yeah, the bossa nova |
|
(The dance of love) |
|
[Instrumental organ] |
|
Now I'm glad to say I'm his bride to be |
|
And we're gonna raise a family |
|
And when our kids ask how it came about |
|
I'm gonna say to them without a doubt |
|
Blame it on the bossa nova with its magic spell |
|
Blame it on the bossa nova that he did so well |
|
Oh, it all began with just one little dance |
|
But then it ended up a big romance |
|
Blame it on the bossa nova |
|
The dance of love |
|
(Now was it the moon?) |
|
No, no, the bossa nova |
|
(Or the stars above?) |
|
No, no, the bossa nova |
|
(Now was it the tune? ) |
|
Yeah, yeah, the bossa nova |
|
(The dance of love) |
|
(Now was it the moon?) |
|
No, no, the bossa nova |
|
(Or the stars above ?) |
|
[Fade] |
|
No, no, the bossa nova |
