You always wanted a lover I only wanted a job I've always worked for my living How am I gonna get through? How am I gonna get through? I come here looking for money, got to have it And end up living with love, oh, oh Now you left me with nothing Can't take it How am I gonna get through? How am I gonna get through? I bought you drinks, I brought you flowers I read your books and talked for hours Every day, so many drinks Such pretty flowers, so tell me What have I, what have I What have I done to deserve this? What have I, what have I What have I done to deserve this? What have I, what have I, what have I Since you went away, I've been hanging around I've been wondering why I'm feeling down You went away, it should make me feel better But I don't know, oh How I'm gonna get through How I'm gonna get through You always wanted me to be something I wasn't You always wanted too much, oh, oh Now I can do what I want to Forever How am I gonna get through? How am I gonna get through? At night, the people come and go They talk too fast and walk too slow Chasing time from hour to hour I pour the drinks and crush the flowers What have I, what have I done to deserve this? What have I, what have I What have I done to deserve this? What have I, what have I, what have I Since you went away, I've been hanging around I've been wondering why I'm feeling down You went away, it should make me feel better But I don't know, oh How I'm gonna get through (baby) How I'm gonna get through How I'm gonna get through (baby) How I'm gonna get through How I'm gonna get through (baby) How I'm gonna get through I'm gonna get through I'm gonna get through I'm gonna get through Right? We don't have to fall apart, we don't have to fight We don't need to go to hell and back every night We can make a deal We don't have to fall apart, we don't have to fight We don't need to go to hell and back every night What have I, what have I What have I done to deserve this? What have I, what have I What have I done to deserve this?

A música “What Have I Done to Deserve This?” foi lançada como o segundo single do álbum *Actually*, de Pet Shop Boys, em 10 de agosto de 1987.
A faixa contou com a participação de Dusty Springfield, um renomado cantor de soul, criando uma colaboração internacional entre o dueto britânico e a artista americana.
O sucesso comercial da canção nas paradas do Reino Unido e da América do Norte ajudou a revitalizar a carreira de Dusty Springfield, trazendo um novo interesse pelo seu repertório.
Após a divulgação desse single, Pet Shop Boys escreveram e produziram os sucessos “Nothing Has Been Proved” e “In Private” para a própria Dusty Springfield, que foram incluídos em seu álbum *Reputation* de 1990.
A parceria na gravação dessa faixa marcou o início de uma relação de longa duração entre o duo e a diva, que continuou com produções posteriores.
