Biography

Born: April 16, 1939 in Hampstead, London, UK, died: March 02, 1999 in Henley, Oxfordshire, UK. Influential British singer who began her career with [a=The Lana Sisters], later [a=The Springfields] in the early 60's before going solo. She achieved a long string of successful albums and singles through most of the 1960's, as well as having several variety series on BBC and ITV networks in the UK which she headlined during those years. Her chart successes slowed in the 1970s, but she achieved a renaissance in the 1980's with the help of the [a=Pet Shop Boys], with whom she recorded two hit records, including her hit duet with PSB, "What Have I Done To Deserve This?" She was diagnosed with cancer after the recording of her final album, "A Very Fine Love". After treatment the cancer was briefly in remission, but eventually returned, and she died in March 1999, a few days after she had been awarded the Order of the British Empire. Later that same year, she was inducted as a performer into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

LYRICS

Take your time and tell me
Where you lie
I realise
That we've been found out this time
We should stay together
If we can
But what you've planned
Means there's a difference between

What you're gonna say
In private
You still want my love
We're in this together
And what you're gonna do
In public
Say you were never in love
That you can remember

So discreet
I never tried to meet
Your friends or interfere
I took a back seat between

And what you gonna say
In private?
You still want my love
We're in this together
And what you're gonna do
In public
Say you were never in love
That you can remember

What you gonna say, ay
When you run back to your wife?
I guess it's just the story of my life
What you gonna say?

So take your time
And tell me
Where did you learn
Oh, I may publicise
That there's a difference between

What you're gonna say
In private?
You still want my love
We're in this together
And what you're gonna do
In public
Say you were never in love
That you can remember
Tell me what you gonna say
In private?, ooh, ooh, ooh
What you gonna say?
What you gonna do?
Baby, what you gonna say?
