No One to Blame Songtext
von Anita Baker

Yes, I′ve been around and I watch you, baby
I know you're the one
And I see you and I cry inside, baby
The moment has come

But I, I try to hide what I′m feeling, baby
Don't want you to know
It's a feeling so deep in my heart, baby
I can′t let it go, yes

No one to blame
If I miss this, ′sho would be shame
No one to blame, baby
'Sho is a shame

There ain′t no reason to doubt me, baby
You know I don't lie
And I tell you from deep in my heart, baby
I′m willin' to try, yes I am


′Cause this ain't no game that I'm playing, baby
Our love is for real
And I tell you I know that it′s strong
I know what I feel, yes

No one to blame, baby
If I miss this, ′sho would be shame
No one to blame, darlin'
I miss this, ′sho is a shame
No one to blame, baby
'Sho is a shame

My baby, life offers no prize
No guarantees, baby, for missed opportunitites
And I won′t let you walk by
I've got to try, tellin′ you I know it's right
It's the truth, don′t you lie, baby, yes

You know that I tried to resist you, baby
But I′m losin' my fight
I mean this, I really do mean this, baby
You know that I′ll tell you no lies

'Cause this ain′t no game that I'm playing, baby
This thang is for real
And I want you to know that it′s strong
I know what I feel


No one to blame, baby
I don't want to miss this
Now you know I don't, baby
Be a crying shame
Oh, if I can′t, if I can′t call your name
In the midnight hour, baby
