Song Lyrics by Album
Saw Something
author: Andrew Charles Phillpott, Dave Gahan, Christian Eigner
After the storm
Had passed
I wondered how long
The break in the clouds would last
***
I saw something in your eyes
I'm sure
Oh baby I saw it
Something in your eyes
I wanted it for myself
***
I sit and I wait
And I stare
Still wishing for a divine intervention
To lift me from my chair
***
I saw something in your eyes
I'm sure
Oh baby I saw it
Something in your eyes
***
I saw something in your eyes
I'm sure
Oh baby I saw it
Something in your eyes
I wanted it for myself
***
You and I we've come so far
We've reached beyond the farthest star
Time and time and time again
I want you back
You were my friend
We can pretend
***
I saw something in your eyes
I'm sure
Oh baby I saw it
Something in your eyes
I wanted it for myself
Kingdom
author: Andrew Charles Phillpott, Dave Gahan, Christian Eigner
Can you feel me coming
Open the door it's only me
I have that desperate feeling
In trouble is where I'm going to be
***
I know you hear me knocking
So open the door and set me free
***
If there's a kingdom beyond it all
Is there a God who loves us all
Do we believe in love at all
I'm still pretending, I'm not a fool
***
So in your infinite wisdom
Show me how this life should be
With all your love and glory
Doesn't mean that much to me
***
If there's a kingdom beyond it all
Is there a God who loves us all
Do we believe in love at all
I'm still pretending, I'm not a fool
Deeper And Deeper
author: Dave Gahan, Andrew Charles Phillpott, Christian Eigner
I want your love
***
I'm gonna have you
When I want to
I'm gonna take you
That's what I like
***
I'm going down now
Deeper and deeper
Under your skin
You know that it's right
***
I wanna love you
I want your love
I wanna love you
I want your love
***
You can't tell me
That you don't want it
You know that I like it
When you put up a fight
***
I'm gonna have you
When I want to
I'm gonna take you
That's what I like
***
I wanna love you
I want your lovev
I wanna love you
I want your love
***
I wanna love you
I want your love
I wanna love you
I want your love
***
I'm gonna have you
When I want to
I'm gonna take you
That's what I like
***
I'm going down now
Deeper and deeper
Under your skin now
You know that it's right
***
I wanna love you
I want your love
I wanna love you
I want your love
21 Days
author: Christian Eigner, Andrew Charles Phillpott, Dave Gahan
When are you going to tell us it's over?
How long will you keep us hanging on your hook?
You have us all by the short and curlys
Reading us all like a book
***
Building a tower of fear by the river
Build it up, build it up
Building a tower of fear by the river
Build it up, build it up
***
It's been 21 days and the tower keeps rising
21 days, that's all it took
The sun is disappearing on the horizon
You really should take a look
***
Building a tower of fear by the river
Build it up, build it up
Building a tower of fear by the river
Build it up, build it up
Miracles
author: Christian Eigner, Dave Gahan, Andrew Charles Phillpott
I don't believe in miracles
And they happen every day
I don't believe in Jesus
But I'm praying anyway
***
I want to accept the truth, I really do
I believe, I'm just afraid of losing you
***
I read it in the paper
And I've watched them on TV
I've seen it in the movies
They say the truth will set you free
***
I want to accept the truth, I really do
I believe, I'm just afraid of losing you
***
I'm just afraid of losing you
Use You
author: Andrew Charles Phillpott, Dave Gahan, Christian Eigner
It's killing me to be in this room
I've gotta get out, I've gotta get out soon
I'm hurting you with everything I do
It's too long, too long in this place
***
We're counting down only seconds now
I've gotta hang on, hang on to you
I'm staring at my cuticles
Too long, too long in this place
***
We have each other, you are my brother
Sitting here beside you I just wanna use you
We have each other, you are my brother
Sitting here beside you I just wanna use you
***
I'm hurting you with everything I do
I've gotta get out, I've gotta get out soon
It's killing me to be in this room
I don't belong, belong in this place
***
We have each other, you are my brother
Sitting here beside you I just wanna use you
We have each other, you are my brother
Sitting here beside you I just wanna use
***
We have each other, you are my brother
Sitting here beside you I just wanna use you
We have each other, you are my brother
Sitting here beside you I just wanna use you
***
We have each other, you are my brother
Sitting here beside you I just wanna use you
We have each other, you are my brother
Sitting here beside you I just wanna use you
***
Use you, I just wanna use you
Use you, I just wanna use you
Insoluble
author: Christian Eigner, Andrew Charles Phillpott, Dave Gahan
I scattered the pictures
On the bedroom floor
I should have told you
Oh, many times before
***
I should have listened
When you were mine
It could be too late
I've already crossed the line
***
My angel
When you are whispering in my ear
You have nothing to fear
***
It's all, you have nothing to fear
You gave, you have nothing to fear
It's all, you have nothing to fear
I got, you have nothing to fear
***
You've always been here
By my side
I even felt you
When the earth began to slide
***
My angel
My angel
***
It's all, you have nothing to fear
We had, you have nothing to fear
It's all, you have nothing to fear
I got, you have nothing to fear
***
You have nothing to fear
You have nothing to fear
Endless
author: Christian Eigner, Andrew Charles Phillpott, Dave Gahan
In the cold of the full moon
On this night
Time itself has sliped away
Now you are mine
Slowly the hours passed
All through the night
Together we can disappear
For a while
***
I am still
I am still
***
Watching the hourglass
On that night
We touched the stars
And reached the moon
For a time
I'm lost in a moment with you
It feels right
We're floating above the stars
You and I
***
I am still
I am still
Forever and ever and ever
Endless
Endless
Now I am still
Endless
Endless
Your body is endless
***
I am still
I am still
I am still
I am still
A Little Lie
author: Christian Eigner, Dave Gahan, Andrew Charles Phillpott
That time has passed
Some things that never really last
We've come undone
To me you'll always be the one
***
Calm down people
It's just a little lie
You know it doesn't mean nothing
And I realize you could be right
***
Calm down people
It's just a little lie
You know it doesn't mean nothing
And I realize you could be right
***
I walk alone
And you know I never felt at home
I'm so hard to please
And I have everything I need
***
Oh, calm down people
It's just a little lie
You know it doesn't mean nothing
And I realize you could be right
***
Oh, calm down people
It's just a little lie
You know it doesn't mean nothing
And I realize you could be right
Down
author: Christian Eigner, Dave Gahan, Andrew Charles Phillpott
I need some company
I need you tonight
You don't have to talk to me
And don't be polite
***
Take my body and soul
I feel so old
***
Down, on the ground
There's no one left
And the snow is falling
***
Down, on the ground
It's where I'm bound
To end up by morning, down
***
Just lay down beside of me
You know what I like
Take what you want from me
We don't have to fight
***
Take my body and soul
I feel so old
***
Down, on the ground
There's no one left
And the snow is falling
***
Down, on the ground
It's where I'm bound
To end up by morning, down
Oh down, oh down
***
And you comfort me
Until my legs go weak
Hold me closer, we won't speak
***
Down on the ground
There's no one left
And the snow is falling
***
Down, on the ground
It's where I'm bound
To end up by morning, down
***
Oh, we all keep falling
All down
And the world keeps turning
B-sides
Tomorrow
single: "Kingdom" / author: Nils Karsten, Michael-Lee Bock
You're the stars in the sky
You have heaven in your eyes
***
And only you're the reason why
Will you stay here by my side
***
One last kiss
One last time
***
Tomorrow will come
Tomorrow will come
All too soon
All too soon
Tomorrow will come
Tomorrow will come
***
With you I can survive
You make me feel alive
***
You're the sun and the rain
My pleasure and my pain
***
One last kiss
One last time
***
Tomorrow will come
Tomorrow will come
All too soon
All too soon
Tomorrow will come
Tomorrow will come
***
One last kiss
One last time
***
Tomorrow will come
Tomorrow will come
All too soon
All too soon
Tomorrow will come
Tomorrow will come
Love Will Leave
single: "Saw Something" / author: Christian Eigner, Dave Gahan, Andrew Charles Phillpott
Love will leave you
Cold and lonely
Love will lift you
Up to the sky
Break your heart
All so slowly
Never give a reason why
***
In time
***
We all want to be hurt
Wasting precious time
It all seems so absurd
You had your chance now wait in line
***
You said your words
They sound so holy
You can have if you like
***
Don't pretend
That you know me
There is no reason why
***
In time
***
In time
***
We all want to be hurt
Wasting precious time
It all seems so absurd
You had your chance now wait in line
***
We all want to be hurt
Wasting precious time
It all seems so absurd
You had your chance now wait in line
