I was at a dance
When he caught my eyes
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
And soon it ended up a big romance
Blame it on the bossa nova
The dance of love
Now was it on moon ?
No, no to bossa nova
Or the stars above ?
No, no to bossa nova
Now was is the tune?
Yeah, yeah to bossa nova
Dance of love..
(pause)
Now I'm glad to say
I was bride to be
And we're gonna raise
our family
And when our kids ask how it came about
Then I'm gonna say to them without a doubt
Blame it on the bossa nova
With the magic spell
Blame it on the bossa nova
That he did so well
Oh it all began with just one little dance
And soon 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
repeat last version
