I Blame You Lyrics

People keep asking about this glow I have
'Cause I'm just not the same
They say I'm walking different, talking different
Looks like all of me has changed

Magic is in my eyes, I can no longer hide

When they look at me
What they fail to see
Is the love you got me feeling
Like I'm dancing on the ceiling
I can hardly breathe
'Cause you're all I need
So when they ask me why I'm smiling like a fool
I Blame You
Oh, baby, I blame you, oh yeah

My mind is frozen, got me open of you love
Can't think of no one else
I smell the roses, doing poses in the mirror
You make me love myself

Magic is in my eyes, I can no longer hide

When they look at me
What they fail to see
Is the love you got me feeling
Like I'm dancing on the ceiling
I can hardly breathe
'Cause you're all I need
So when they ask me why I'm smiling like a fool
I blame you
Oh, baby, I blame you, oh yeah

I blame you, oh yeah
Oh, baby, I blame you

I blame you each and every day
It's your fault that I'm completely blown away
You've been building castles in the sky
A place for only you and I
I, I, I

I blame you
Oh, baby, I blame you, oh yeah
I blame you
Oh, baby, I blame you, oh yeah

When they look at me
What they fail to see
I blame you
I can hardly breathe
'Cause you're all I need
I blame you

I blame you
You

I Blame You

This carefree song about new love was released as the lead single from Ledisi's seventh album, The Truth. It was performed by Ledisi for the first time on BET's annual Black Girls Rock! special on November 3, 2013.

Ledisi wrote and produced the song with Claude Kelly and Chuck Harmony, the same team that was behind her debut US Top 20 R&B hit "Pieces of Me."

In the song's music video Ledisi transforms from a self-conscious introvert into a sexy, confident lady. "The video is me, mentally and physically," she told The Boombox . "I can be shy and nerdy, and I can also be what you see later in the video. But I am only that way in private, not in public."
