DEPECHE MODE - MUSIC FOR THE MASSES (1987)
1. NEVER LET ME DOWN AGAIN
I'm
taking a ride
With my best friend
I hope he never lets me down
again
He knows where he's taking me
Taking me where I want to
be
I'm taking a ride
With my best friend
We're
flying high
We're watching the world pass us by
Never want to
come down
Never want to put my feet back down
On the ground
I'm
taking a ride
With my best friend
I hope he never lets me down
again
Promises me I'm safe as houses
As long as I remember
who's wearing the trousers
I hope he never lets me down again
Never let me down
See
the stars, they're shining bright
Everything's alright tonight
2.
THE THINGS YOU SAID
I
heard it from my friends
About the things you said
I heard it
from my friends
About the things you said
But they know me
better than that
They know me better than that
They know my
weaknesses
I never tried to hide them
They know my weaknesses
I
never denied them
I
heard it from my friends
About the things you said
I heard it
from my friends
About the things you said
How can a view become
so twisted
How can a view become so twisted
They know my
weaknesses
I never tried to hide them
They know my
weaknesses
You tried them
I
get so carried away
You brought me down to earth
I thought we
had something precious
Now I know what it's worth
I
heard it from my friends
About the things you said
I heard it
from my friends
About the things you said
I've never felt so
disappointed
Never felt so disappointed
They know my
weaknesses
I never tried to hide them
They know my
weaknesses
Thought that you liked them
They know me better than that
3.
STRANGELOVE
There'll
be times
When my crimes
Will seem almost unforgivable
I give
in to sin
Because you have to make this life livable
But when
you think I've had enough
From your sea of love
I'll take more
than another riverful
And I'll make it all worthwhile
I'll make
your heart smile
Strangelove
Strange
highs and strange lows
Strangelove
That's how my love
goes
Strangelove
Will you give it to me
Will you take the
pain
I will give to you
Again and again
And will you return
it
There'll
be days
When I stray
I may appear to be
Constantly out of
reach
I give in to sin
Because I like to practice what I
preach
I'm not trying to say
I'll have it all my way
I'm
always willing to learn
When you've got something to teach
And
I'll make it all worthwhile
I'll make your heart smile
Pain
will you return it
I'll say it again - pain
Pain will you
return it
I won't say it again
I
give in
Again and again
I give in
Will you give it to be
I
give in
I'll say it again
I give in
I give in
Again
and again
I give in
That's how my love goes
I give in
I'll
say it again
I give in

SACRED
Sacred
Holy
To
put it in words
To write it down
That is walking on hallowed
ground
But it's my duty
I'm a missionary
So
here is my confesion
It's an obsession
I'm a firm believer
And
a warm receiver
And I've made my decision
This is
religion
There's no doubt
I'm one of the devout
Trying to
sell the story
Of love's eternal glory
Spreading
the news around the world
Taking the word to boys and girls
I'm
a firm believer
And a warm receiver
And I will go down on my
knees
When I see beauty
There's no doubt
I'm one of the
devout
Trying to sell the story
Of love's eternal glory
Sacred
Holy
To
put it in words
To write it down
That is walking on hallowed
ground

LITTLE 15
Little
15
You help her forget
The world outside
You're not part of
it yet
And if you could drive
You could drive her away
To a
happier place
To a happier day
That exists in your mind
And
in your smile
She could escape there
Just for a while
Little
15
Little
15
Why take the smooth with the rough
When things run
smooth
It's already more than enough
She knows your mind
Is
not yet in league
With the rest of the world
And it's little
intrigues
Do you understand
Do you know what she means
As
time goes by
And when you've seen what she's seen
You
will
Little 15
Little
15
Why does she have to defend
Her feelings inside
Why
pretend
She's not had a life
A life of near misses
Now all
that she wants
Is 3 little wishes
She wants to see with your
eyes
She wants to smile with your smile
She wants a nice
surprise
Every once in a while

BEHIND THE WHEEL
My
little girl
Drive anywhere
Do what you want
I don't
care
Tonight
I'm in the hands of fate
I hand myself
Over
on a plate
Now
Oh
little girl
There are times when I feel
I'd rather not be
The
one behind the wheel
Come
Pull my strings
Watch me move
I
do anything
Please
Sweet
little girl
I prefer
You behind the wheel
And me the
passenger
Drive
I'm yours to keep
Do what you want
I'm
going cheap
Tonight
You're behind the wheel tonight
7.
I WANT YOU NOW
I
want you now
Tomorrow won't do
There's a yearning inside
And
it's showing through
Reach out your hands
And accept my
love
We've waited for too long
Enough is enough
I want you
now
My
heart is aching
My body is burning
My hands are shaking
My
head is turning
You understand
It's so easy to choose
We've
got time to kill
We've got nothing to lose
I want you now
And
I don't mean to sound
Like one of the boys
That's now what I'm
trying to do
I don't want to be
Like one of the boys
I just
want you now
Because
I've got a love
A love that won't wait
A love that is
growing
And it's getting late
Do you know what it means
To
be left this way
When everyone's gone
And the feelings they
stay
I want you now
8.
TO HAVE AND TO HOLD
I
need to be cleansed
It's time to make amends
For all of the
fun
The damage is done
And I feel diseased
I'm down on my
knees
And I need forgiveness
Someone to bear witness
To the
goodness within
Beneath the sin
Although I may flirt
With
all kinds of dirt
To the point of disease
Now I want
release
From all this decay
Take it away
And
somewhere
There's someone who cares
With a heart of gold
To
have and to hold
9.
NOTHING
Sitting
target
Sitting waiting
Anticipating
Nothing
Nothing
Life
Is
full of surprises
It advertises
Nothing
Nothing
What
am I trying to do
What am I trying to say
I'm not trying to
tell you anything
You didn't know
When you woke up today
Sitting
target
Sitting praying
God is saying
Nothing
Nothing
Always
Knows
the prospects
Learn to expect
Nothing
Nothing

PLEASURE LITTLE TREASURE
Everybody's
looking for someone to follow
Finding the whole thing hard to
swallow
Everybody's looking for a reason to live
If you're
looking for a reason I've a reason to give
Pleasure, little
treasure
Everybody's
looking for a new sensation
Everybody's talking about the state of
the nation
Everybody's searching for a promised land
Everybody's
failing to understand
Pleasure, little treasure
Everybody's
looking for a reason to live
If you're looking for a reason
I've
a reason to give
Pleasure, little treasure
Maternity
frocks and paternity suits
If that's what you want
They're
waiting for you
Everybody needs some reason or other
You'll
find a reason when you discover
Pleasure, little treasure
Everybody's
looking for a reason to live
If you're looking for a reason
I've
a reason to give
Pleasure, little treasure
