You drift into_ the strangest_ dreams_

Of youthful follies_ and changing teams_
Bm C#7
Ad-mit you're wrong_ oh, no! Not yet_
F# Em
Then you wake up and remember that you_ can't forget_
Pre-Chorus 2:
Bm
She's made you_
A6
Some kind of laugh_ing_ stock_
Em F#m
Because you dance to disco_ and you don't like rock_
Bm
She made fun_
A6
Of you and even_ in_ bed_
Em F#m A6
Said she was gonna go and get herself a real man in-stead_
Chorus:
G A Bm D6
So ask your-self now, can you for-give her_

If_ she begs you_ to?__
G A Bm D6
Ask your-self can you ev-en de-li-ver_
G A F#m
What she de-mands of_ you__

Or do you want re-venge__
A5 Bm Bm A5 Bm C5 Bm
But that's child__ish_ so child__ish_
A5 Bm C5 Bm A5
But that's child__ish_ so child__ish_
Verse 3:
Bm C#7
Re-member_ when_ you were more ea-si-ly led_
F# Em
Behind the cricket pavilion and the bicycle shed_
Bm C#7
Trembling as_ your dreams came true_
F# Em
You looked right into those blue eyes_ and knew_
Pre-Chorus 3:
Bm
It was love_
A6
And now you can't_ pre_tend_
Em F#m
You've for-gotten all the promises of that first friend_
Bm
It's bad e-nough
A6
She knows how_ you_ feel_
Em F#m A6
But she's not prepared to share you with a_ me-mo-ry_

So ask your-self now, can you for-give her_

What she de-mands of_ you__

Ask your-self now, can you for-give her_

If_ she begs you_ to?__
G A Bm D6
And ask your-self can you ev_en dare_

What she de-mands of_ you__

| This is more than just a gay guy trying to be straight. His girlfriend did humiliate him in every way possible. He experimented in youth with another boy with blue eyes who he knows he loves, and yet he still is wondering if he's gay or not, and if he should forgive the girl who hurt him as badly as she could. Even more so he has to wonder if even if he forgave her and they got back together, could he even be her boyfriend when he's still in love with the blue eyed boy he experimented with. | |
