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 pavilion 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! You could do anything [x8]
