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.

FORGIVE AND FORGET (PULL DOWN THE NIGHT)

In the beginning in the days before time the light was alive with the essense of power and from that power were born beings who lived on the edge of eternity and they spread their wings and soared through the ancient air and the beating of their wings made the winds and from the winds came the seas and from the sea came the life of the earth

Nature's cast upon the sea the winds of past of promise be waters deep uncover me a scheme of sleep as lovers three

If you'll forgive me my ferocity I won't forget your sweetness pull down the night lay it before me gratify my head with curses

Night recalls tranquility a curtain falls and sets it free darkness calls eternity down silent halls the shadows flee

If you'll forgive me my ferocity I won't forget your sweetness pull down the night lay it before me satisfy my head with curses

Forgive and forget forgive and forget forgive and forget

Fates are cast upon the sea the winds of past of promise be waters deep uncover me a scheme of sleep as lovers three

Forgive and forget forgive and forget
