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)

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?)

No, no, the bossa nova
