Why Is It My Fault

 Why Is It My Fault

 

Woke up a December morning the sun was shining on you                                      

I tried to remember the evening but it was hard to do                                               

The sanctity of sleep had conquered your face but a smile lingered on                    

I got dressed in a silent rush and in five minutes I was gone                                    

 

It’s open to debate but why is it my fault

Caught between love and hate why is it my fault

I ain’t the light of the Earth I ain’t the salt

Can’t we blame God why is it my fault

 

Santa Claus was ringing his bell for the Salvation Army

He was nipping on the bottle but that fact didn’t alarm me

I tossed in a dollar hoping that it would really go to the poor

I thought of giving you a call but something in me wasn’t sure

 

It’s open to debate but why is it my fault

Caught between love and hate why is it my fault

I ain’t the light of the Earth I ain’t the salt

Can’t we blame God why is it my fault

 

There are ten thousand horses stampeding inside my beating heart

I remember your words “Every act of love is an act of art”

Well darling it takes two to tangle and that ain’t no maybe

It’s hard to be happy when you’re weeping over the coming baby

 

It’s open to debate but why is it my fault

Caught between love and hate why is it my fault

I ain’t the light of the Earth I ain’t the salt

Can’t we blame God why is it my fault

 

I’m just a part time song writer stuck on the blues

One man’s tragedy another’s good news

I wish the world could be a kinder place

Money honey has hijacked the human race

 

Your knitting stockings shocking pink and it makes me kinda think

That the night really ain’t black it’s only just a puddle of spilled ink

Alone is a state of mind there are over eight billion down here

With a sigh I accept the lie and reach over to draw you near

 

It’s open to debate but why is it my fault

Caught between love and hate why is it my fault

I ain’t the light of the Earth I ain’t the salt

Can’t we blame God why is it my fault
