Lyrics and translation Eydie Gormé - Blame It On the Bossa Nova
I
was
at
a
dance
J’étais
à
un
bal
When
he
caught
my
eye
Quand
tu
as
croisé
mon
regard
Standin'
all
alone
Debout
tout
seul
Lookin'
sad
and
shy
Avec
l’air
triste
et
timide
We
began
to
dance
On
a
commencé
à
danser
Swayin'
to
and
fro
Se
balançant
d’avant
en
arrière
And
soon
I
knew
I'd
never
let
him
go
Et
j’ai
vite
compris
que
je
ne
te
laisserais
jamais
partir
Blame
it
on
the
bossa
nova
C’est
la
bossa
nova
qui
est
à
blâmer
With
its
magic
spell
Avec
son
charme
magique
Blame
it
on
the
bossa
nova
C’est
la
bossa
nova
qui
est
à
blâmer
That
he
did
so
well
Que
tu
as
si
bien
dansé
Oh,
it
all
began
with
just
one
little
dance
Oh,
tout
a
commencé
avec
une
seule
petite
danse
But
soon
it
ended
up
a
big
romance
Mais
ça
s’est
vite
transformé
en
une
grande
romance
Blame
it
on
the
bossa
nova
C’est
la
bossa
nova
qui
est
à
blâmer
The
dance
of
love
La
danse
de
l’amour
(Now
was
it
the
moon?)
(Est-ce
la
lune?)
No,
no,
the
bossa
nova
Non,
non,
la
bossa
nova
(Or
the
stars
above?)
(Ou
les
étoiles
au-dessus?)
No,
no,
the
bossa
nova
Non,
non,
la
bossa
nova
(Now
was
it
the
tune?)
(Est-ce
la
mélodie?)
Yeah,
yeah,
the
bossa
nova
Oui,
oui,
la
bossa
nova
(The
dance
of
love)
(La
danse
de
l’amour)
Now,
I'm
glad
to
say
Maintenant,
je
suis
contente
de
dire
I'm
his
bride
to
be
Que
je
vais
être
ta
femme
And
we're
gonna
raise
a
family
Et
on
va
fonder
une
famille
And
when
our
kids
ask
Et
quand
nos
enfants
demanderont
How
it
came
about
Comment
tout
ça
est
arrivé
I'm
gonna
say
to
them
without
a
doubt
Je
leur
dirai
sans
hésiter
Blame
it
on
the
bossa
nova
C’est
la
bossa
nova
qui
est
à
blâmer
With
its
magic
spell
Avec
son

magique
Blame
