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.

PICTURE THIS

All I want is a room with a view a sight worth seeing a vision of you
All I want is a room with a view
I will give you my finest hour the one I spent watching you shower
I will give you my finest hour

All I want is a photo in my wallet a small remembrance of something more solid
All I want is a picture of you

Picture this a day in December
Picture this freezing cold weather
You got clouds on your lids and you'd be on the skids if it weren't for your job at the garage
If you could only picture this a sky full of thunder
Picture this my telephone number
One and one is what I'm telling you

All I want is 20-20 vision a total portrait with no omissions
All I want is a vision of you
If you can picture this a day in December
Picture this freezing cold weather
You got clouds on your lids and you'd be on the skids if it weren't for your job at the garage
If you could only picture this a sky full of thunder
Picture this my telephone number
One and one is what I'm telling you
Get a pocket computer try to do what ya used to do yeah
