The Deborah Harry song catalog you find on this page was compiled by me, the webmaster, with the help of my personal record collection, booklets, biographies, setlists, ASCAP, the LoC (Library of Congress), articles and (live) bootlegs. It's my goal to create a page which features Deborah's complete musical body of work, no matter if Deborah was in any way musically involved herself or whether she contributed her own lyrics to a project. In order to keep up the standard of this page and to make it grow you can help by submitting song titles and/or information which are missing on this site. Every contribution is greatly appreciated. Official song lyrics were taken from booklets. I transcribed those songs myself where no official lyrics were available (with no guarantee for their accuracy). I apologize for possible errors and will gladly take corrections. I kindly ask you not to copy any of these lyrics from this page.
All song pages include links to the albums, singles and/or live albums which they were released on. Best Ofs and soundtracks were only listed if there is a special mix available on the record or the song title itself was previously unreleased.

LOOK GOOD IN BLUE

You look good in blue
It matches your skin
Your eyes dripping with pain
Someone like you getting off on the lies 'cause it dulls your surprise again
If it's alright with you I could give you some head and shoulders to lie on

You look good in blue
I know what you mean when you say you've seen the end
Someone like you been at it again you knew what was up in the end
If it's alright with you I could give you some head and shoulders to lie on

Throw your weight on me baby
Don't complain on me baby
Escape in me next to me

I'm tired always tired and I got not place to sleep (got no place to sleep)
Don't mind dividing down the line
Can't say that I'm complaining 'cause I got no place to play yeah (got no place to play)
Don't mind dividing down the line

You look good in blue
It matches your skin
Your eyes dripping with pain
If it's alright with you I could give you some head and shoulders to lie on
Yes I could give you some head and shoulders to lie on

COMMENTS

quoted from the book 'Deborah Harry: Platinum Blonde - A Portrait By Cathay Che' - 1999

question: What about "You Look Good In Blue?" Who looks good in blue? Is it you?
answer: No, I don't think so. That's one of Jimmy [Destri]'s. All his songs are pretty much about women and relationships.
