Closer To Heaven / Left To My Own Devices Lyrics - Pandemonium Live - Pet Shop Boys

Give me hope 

Give me all your love 

Tell me now 

You're coming home tonight 

Have some faith 

In the love we share 

Is it fate 

Does darkness end in light 

Never been closer to heaven 

Never been further away 

Never been closer to heaven 

Never been further away 

I get out of bed at half past ten 

Phone up a friend, who's a party animal 

Turn on the news and drink some tea 

Maybe if you're with me we'll do some shopping

One day I'll read, or learn to drive a car 

If you pass the test, you can beat the rest 

But I don't like to compete, or talk street, street, street 

I can pick up the best from the party animal 

I could leave you, say goodbye 

Or I could love you, if I try 

And I could 

And left to my own devices, I probably would 

Left to my own devices, I probably would 

Pick up a brochure about the sun 

Learn to ignore what the photographer saw 

I was always told that you should join a club 

Stick with the gang, if you want to belong 

I was a lonely boy, no strength, no joy 

In a world of my own at the back of the garden 

I didn't want to compete, or play out on the street 

For in a secret life I was a round head general 

I could leave you, say goodbye 

Or I could love you, if I try 

And I could 

And left to my own devices, I probably would 

Left to my own devices, I probably would 

Oh, I would 

Che Guevara to a disco beat 

Claude Debussy a heartbeat 

It's not a crime when you look the way you do 

The way I like to picture you 

When I get home, it's late at night 

I pour a drink and watch the fight 

Turn off the TV, look at a book 

Pick up the phone, fix some food 

Maybe I'll sit up all night and day 

Waiting for the minute I hear you say 

I could leave you, say goodbye 

Or I could love you, if I try 

And I could 

And left to my own devices, I probably would 

And left to my own devices, I probably would 

Come on, baby 

Left to my own devices, I probably would
