That Boy - Lloyd Cole

Even though the skies are blue

Don’t they let the sun shine through?

Because he is a jerk, I guess

Does that mean he loves you less?

Could you forgive that boy?

Could you find some part of your aching heart

To forgive that boy?

Could you take him home?

Could you hold him in your arms

Until the morning comes?

When he’s all cried out

Could you be that girl?

And what if it were you who fell

Would he have you go to hell?

Because he is a man, it’s true

Well, wasn’t she a woman too?

Could you forgive that boy?

Could you find some part of your aching heart

To forgive that boy?

Could you take him home?

Could you hold him in your arms

Until the morning comes?

When he’s all cried out

Could you be that girl?
