Lyric They ve Only Themselves To Blame

I m afraid that from today our meeting
Must be temporarily postponed
It seems our parents followed us one evening
Caught us walking one another home
Now I have been confined till further notice
Told I should be thoroughly ashamed
And for all the good that it will do me
They ve only themselves to blame

I don t understand a word they re saying
Telling me it s for our own good
Do they think that we re just children playing
How can we be so misunderstood

I am a man the same as any other
Younger though I may be in my years
Tell me I m a child who should know better
And you won t see me holding back the tears
Can t they get it through their heads I love you
Must I try so hard to explain
If we re reported missing in the morning
Then they re only themselves to blame
They ve only themselves to blame
