Song lyrics downloaded from: https://www.albumsongandlyrics.com ------------------------------------------ Pet Shop Boys - A red letter day ------------------------------------------ Go to work and take your calls Hang the fruits of your labour on the walls Such precision and care What does it matter if there´s no one here to share The flowers in the garden, the wine The Waiting For Godot and so much modern time? All I want is what you want I´m always waiting for a red letter day The years perfecting a stance Of measured cool fade into insignificance The moment one starts to understand What on earth does it profit a man? All I want is what you want I´m always waiting for a red letter day For something special, somehow new Someone saying "I love you" Baby, I´m waiting for that red letter day You can sneer or disappear Behind a veneer of self-control But for all of those who don´t fit in Who follow their instincts and are told they sin This is a prayer for a different way All I want is what you want I´m always waiting for a red letter day Like Christmas morning when you´re a kid Admit you love me and you always did Baby, I´m hoping for that red letter day today
