Blame It on Love
David Guetta Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Blocked your number then let you come and spend the night
Couple other moons, all we do is fuck and fight, ooh
No apologies but we got the best excuses
Making policies, even when we do it's useless, useless

'Cause when we say it's over

We do it again on nights we're alone

Say that we won't be more than just friends
I know that you're home, so pick up the phone
'Cause I wanna be where you are
So let's just blame it on love
When the rules fall apart
Let's just blame it on love, blame it on love (blame it on love)
Let's just blame it on love, blame it on love (blame it on love)
Let's just blame it on love

Broken bottles that we finished from the night before, hey yeah, yeah
First we're throwing knives, then we're on the kitchen floor, uuh
No apologies but we have the best excuses, no
We can lie about it, baby, but we know the truth is, the truth is

'Cause when we say it's over

We do it again on nights we're alone
Say that we won't be more than just friends
I know that you're home, so pick up the phone
'Cause I wanna be where you are
So let's just blame it on love
When the rules fall apart
Let's just blame it on love, blame it on love (blame it on love)
Let's just blame it on love, blame it on love (blame it on love)
Let's just blame it on love

Baby, you can hold it against me
As long as you keep holding me against you
'Cause we get so high on the chemistry
Every time you leave

We do it again on nights we're alone
Say that we won't be more than just friends
I know that you're home, so pick up the phone
'Cause I wanna be where you are
So let's just blame it on love
When the rules fall apart
Let's just blame it on love

It again on nights we're alone
Say that we won't be more than just friends
I know that you're home, so pick up the phone
'Cause I wanna be where you are
So let's just blame it on love
When the rules fall apart
Let's just blame it on love, blame it on love (blame it on love)

Let's just blame it on love, blame it on love (blame it on love)
Let's just blame it on love

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to David Guetta's song Blame It On Love is about a tumultuous relationship between two lovers who find themselves in a toxic cycle of arguing and making up. The first verse depicts one partner blocking the other's phone number, only to invite them to spend the night. The two then engage in sex and argue, using any excuse to justify their behavior, even if the policy they create becomes useless. The lovers then repeat this cycle, claiming their actions are due to love.

The chorus suggests that they should blame their behavior on love, as it is the only justification for their actions. They admit that they cannot just be friends since their chemistry is too strong. The second verse describes their violent behavior towards each other, broken bottles from the night before, throwing knives and ending up on the kitchen floor. They continue to make excuses for their actions, even though they both know the truth.

In conclusion, Blame It On Love is a song about a tumultuous relationship that cannot be controlled because of the strong attraction between two people. Despite the toxicity and damaging behavior, they try to justify it as being in love.

Line by Line Meaning

Blocked your number then let you come and spend the night
After blocking your number, I still let you spend the night with me

Couple other moons, all we do is fuck and fight, ooh
We have been together for a while but our relationship is filled with intimacy and arguments

No apologies but we got the best excuses
We don't say sorry but come up with the best justifications

Making policies, even when we do it's useless, useless
We try to make rules but end up breaking them, making those policies useless

'Cause when we say it's over
When we decide to end our relationship

We do it again on nights we're alone
We end up getting intimate again when we spend nights alone

Say that we won't be more than just friends
We acknowledge that we can't be more than friends

I know that you're home, so pick up the phone
I know you are home, so answer the phone

'Cause I wanna be where you are
I want to be with you

So let's just blame it on love
Let's just attribute our actions to love

When the rules fall apart
When we can't follow the rules

Broken bottles that we finished from the night before, hey yeah, yeah
We drank from broken bottles from the previous night

First we're throwing knives, then we're on the kitchen floor, uuh
We start fighting but end up getting intimate on the kitchen floor

We can lie about it, baby, but we know the truth is, the truth is
We may lie about it but we know the truth

Baby, you can hold it against me
You can be angry with me

As long as you keep holding me against you
Just don't let go of me

'Cause we get so high on the chemistry
We feel a strong connection and attraction

Every time you leave
Every time you go away

Let's just blame it on love
Let's attribute our actions to love
