You Can’t Blame Louis - Level 42

One small town boy whose dreams were higher

Thought up a plan

To be a city man

Out in the world

Bright burned the fire

Through every door

He was so sure

Than he ran into a problem

He heard the voice inside him say

"Do you believe that what you have is what you need"

You can't blame Louis

Oh, Louis

He found a girl

His heart's desire

She was the first

She quenched the thirst

His social whirl

did not inspire

Her live divine

Soon lost its shine

Now he's counting every hour

Wondering where she spent the night

She doesn't slow, it seems he'll never know

You can't blame Louis

Oh, Louis

You can't blame Louis

Oh, Louis

Take a day and trace a thought to where it all began

Wondering how you felt at every turn

Even thought reality was not part of the plan

By reaching out you lit the spark forever

Louis thought he'd find the answer

In a world that has no soul

He moved on, to learn onother song

You can't blame Louis

Oh, Louis
