CAN YOU FORGIVE HER? Lyrics

Artist: Pet Shop Boys
Album: Very

(Tennant/Lowe)
-----------------------
Another night with open eyes
Too late to sleep, too soon to rise
You're short of breath, is it a heart attack?
Hot and feverish you face the fact

You're in love, and it feels like shame
Because she's gone and made a fool of you in public again
You're in love, and it feels like pain
Because you know there's too much truth in everything she claims

So ask yourself now: Can you forgive her
If she wants you to?
Ask yourself: Can you even deliver
What she demands of you?

You drift into the strangest dreams
Of youthful follies and changing teams
Admit you're wrong, oh, no, not yet
Then you wake up and remember that you can't forget

She's made you some kind of laughing stock
Because you dance to disco, and you don't like rock
She'd make fun of you, and even in bed
Said she was gonna go and get herself a real man instead

So ask yourself now: Can you forgive her
If she begs you to?
Ask yourself: Can you even deliver
What she demands of you?
Or do you want revenge?
But that's childish, so childish!
(But that's childish, so childish!)

Remember when you were more easily led
Behind the cricket pavillion and the bicycle shed
Trembling as your dreams came true
You looked right into those blue eyes and knew

It was love, and now you can't pretend
You've forgotten all the promises of that first friend
It's bad enough, she knows how you feel
But she's not prepared to share you with the memory

So ask yourself now: Can you forgive her
If she begs you to?
Ask yourself: Can you even deliver
What she demands of you?
Ask yourself now: Can you forgive her
If she begs you to?
And ask yourself: Can you even deliver
What she demands of you?
Or do you want revenge?
But that's childish, so childish!

this is a song about comming out of tennant is it?
by finite_jerk on 8/10/2009 7:59am
Yeah, the whole "Very" album can be considered a "coming out" album. This is actually a really sad song... Tennant does an amazing job of conveying the confusion a young gay guy might go through when society and his woman obviously want to mold him into something different. I'm not gay, so this song conveys a viewpoint on life I would have never heard before.

A Huge group.

Definitely one of the best bands of all time. Most of their old songs make me cry now because of the nostalgia they bring to my mind.

Huge props to Neil and Christopher for making some of the best tunes I've ever danced to.

Yo tampoco soy gay pero esta canción es lo mas triste,lindo y loco que he escuchado.El amor puede ser expresado de muchas maneras que no entendemos pero que igual te llegan al corazón

IT´S A SHIT

Heh, don't like the Petshop version to be honest, but the lyrics are great and I think Finntroll did a great job covering this song. My respect for the writing though, a very good song indeed.
