{Verse 1}
You knew that when you left me, it would tear me apart
But you didn't stop to think you might break your own heart
Don't blame me entirely for the hurt you've gone through
Stop and think about it, it's your own fault too

{Chorus}
We share the blame
We share the blame

{Verse 2}
Some tales of my cheating seem to reach your ears
But don't you know you can't believe everything you hear
Seeing is believing and that you didn't do
Stop and think about it, it's your own fault too

{Chorus}
We share the blame
We share the blame

{Bridge}
Every time we had a lover's quarrel
You had your views and I had mine
We both are guilty of causing our own sorrow
'Cause we didn't realise
Lovers have to compromise

Share, share

Every time we had a lover's quarrel
You had your views and I had mine
We both are guilty of causing our own sorrows
'Cause we didn't realise
Lovers have to compromise

{Outro}
Share the blame
For causing us to break up
We share the blame
Because we didn't make up

Oh, we share the blame
Ooh, we share the blame
