Lyrics:
It's not the way you lead me
By the hand into the bedroom
It's not the way you throw your clothes
Upon the bathroom floor
Been thinking about you
I just couldn't wait to see
Fling my arms around you
As we fall in ecstasy
Ooh sometimes
The truth is harder
Than the pain inside, yeah
Ooh sometimes
It's the broken heart
That decides
It's not the way you caress me
Toy with my affection
It's not my sense of emptiness
You fill with your desire
Climb in bed beside me
We can lock the world outside
Touch me satisfy me
Warm your body next to mine
Ooh sometimes
The truth is harder
Than the pain inside, yeah
Ooh sometimes
It's the broken heart
That decides
Ooh sometimes
The truth is harder
Than the pain inside, yeah
Ooh sometimes
It's the broken heart
That decides
Ooh sometimes
The truth is harder
Than the pain inside, yeah
Ooh sometimes
It's the broken heart
That decides

These guys used to get a lot of flak for being categorised as gay music, as did the Pet Shop Boys and Bronski Beat. I grew up in the 80s as a student in a West London school. I was a fan of rock and electronic music back then but I can still remember the jibes people used to give about this type of music. Looking back on it now and hearing it again with adult ears, I am so grateful that these songs were made. They have all become bullet points to different parts of my life, and these songs still sound great today. I still love the haunting keyboard melody of Bronski Beat's Small town Boy. These are era defining songs that we should all cherish forever!
