You Only Tell Me You Love Me When You're Drunk Songtext

von Pet Shop Boys

What a performance
Tonight
Should I react or turn off the light?
Looks like you're picking a fight
In a blurring of wrong and right
But how your mood changes
You're a devil, now an angel
Suddenly subtle and solemn
And silent as a monk
You only tell me you love me when you're drunk

It's better than nothing, I suppose
Some doosr have opened, others closed
But I couldn't see you exposed
To the horrors behind some of those
Somebody said: listen
Don't you know what you're missing?
You should be kissing him
Instead of dissing him like a punk
But you only tell me you love
Me when you're drunk
You only tell me you love me
When you're drunk

All of my friends keep asking me
Why, oh, why do you not say goodbye?
If you don't even try you'll be sunk
'cause you only tell me you
Love me when you're drunk

What's the meaning when you speak with so much feeling?
Is it over when you're sober?
Is it junk?
You only tell me you love me
When you're drunk
You only tell me you love me
When you're drunk
