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.

MOTHER

(--- speculated lyrics ---)

In the patent leather life I was foolish you were right
All night rookies past the time, looking for somewhere to go
Shiny boots all up their thighs

Mother in the night (I'm calling you, calling you)
Mother in the night (where are you, where are you now?)
Motherʼs left the building, weʼre the missing children
Mother in the night, where are you, where are you tonight?

Mother, may I stay all night?
Lift your curfew like the light
Collars turned against the cold
I'm looking for someone to hold
In your patent leather night

Mother in the night (I'm calling you, calling you)
Mother in the night (where are you, where are you now?)
Motherʼs left the building, weʼre the missing children
Mother in the night, where are you, where are you?

Now that I canʼt remember I need you more than ever
Why canʼt we be together always?

Mother in the night
Mother in the night

Motherʼs left the building, weʼre the missing children
Mother in the night (where are you, where are you now?)
Mother in the night (I'm calling you, calling you)
Mother in the night
Where are you, where are you tonight?

COMMENTS

quoted from the article My New York: Blondie:

“We have a new song about the club called ‘Mother in the Night.’”
