The Best Of Depeche Mode

DREAMING OF ME

Light switch, man switch
Film was broken only then
All the night, fused tomorrow
Dancing with a distant friend

Filming and dreaming, I picture the scene
Filming and dreaming, dreaming of me

So we left, understanding
Clean cut, so were sounding fast
Talked of saddness, I talked of war
I laughed and climbed the rising calm

Filming and dreaming, I picture the scene
Filming and dreaming, dreaming of me

Quickly, I remember
Fused and saw a face before
Timing reason, understanding
Like association whore

Filming and dreaming, I picture the scene
Filming and dreaming, dreaming of me

Dreaming of me (oooh, la la la ...)
Just dreaming of me
Its only me
Just me

NEW LIFE

I stand still stepping on the shady streets
And I watch that man to a stranger
You think you only know me when you turn on the light
Now the room is lit with danger

Complicating, circulating
New life, new life
Operating, generating
New life, new life

Transition to another place
So the time will pass more slowly
Features fuse and your shadows red
Like a film Ive seen now show me

Complicating, circulating
New life, new life
Operating, generating
New life, new life

Your face is hidden and were out of sight
And the road just leads to nowhere
The stranger in the door is the same as before
So the question answers nowhere

Complicating, circulating
New life, new life
Operating, generating
New life, new life

I stand still stepping on the shady streets
And I watch that man to a stranger
Think you only know me when you turn on the light
Now the room is lit, red danger

Complicating, circulating
New life, new life
Operating, generating
New life, new life

JUST CAN'T GET ENOUGH

When Im with you baby, I go out of my head
And I just cant get enough, I just cant get enough
All the things you do to me and everything you said
And I just cant get enough, I just cant get enough

We slip and slide as we fall in love
And I just cant seem to get enough

We walk together, were walking down the street
And I just cant get enough, I just cant get enough
Every time I think of you I know we have to meet
And I just cant get enough, I just cant get enough

Its getting hotter, its our burning love
And I just cant seem to get enough

And when it rains, youre shining down for me
And I just cant get enough, I just cant get enough
Just like a rainbow you know you set me free
And I just cant get enough, I just cant get enough

Youre like an angel and you give me your love
And I just cant seem to get enough

SEE YOU

All I want to do is see you again
Is that too much to ask for?
I just want to see your sweet smile
Smiled the way it was before

Well Ill try not to hold you
And Ill try not to kiss you
And I wont even touch you

All I want to do is see you
Dont you know that its true

I remember the days when wed walk through the woods
And sit on a bench for a while
I treasure the way we used to laugh and play
And look in each others eyes

You can keep me at a distance if you dont trust my resistance
But I swear I wont touch you

All I want to do is see you
Dont you know that its true

Well I know five years is a long time
And that times change (oh that times change)
But I think that you will find
People are basically the same (basically the same)

If the waters still flowing, we can go for a swim
And do the things we used to do
And if Im reluctant you can pull me in
And we can relive our youth

Oh but well stay friendly like sister and brother
Though I think I still love you
All I want to do is see you
Dont you know that its true?

THE MEANING OF LOVE

Ive read more than a hundred books
Seen love mentioned many thousand times
But despite all the places Ive looked
Its still no clearer its just not enough
Im still no nearer the meaning of love

Noted down all my observations
Spent an evening watching television
Still I couldnt say with precision
Know its a feeling and it comes from above
But whats the meaning, the meaning of love?

The meaning of love
Tell me the meaning of love

From the notes that Ive made so far
Love seems something like wanting a scar
But I could be wrong, Im just not sure you see,
Ive never been in love before

Next I asked several friends of mine
If they could spare a few minutes of their time
Their look suggested that Id lost my mind
Tell me the answer, my lord high above
Tell me the meaning, the meaning of love

The meaning of love
Tell me the meaning of love

From the notes that Ive made so far
Love seems something like wanting a scar
But I could be wrong, Im just not sure you see,
Ive never been in love before

Tell me the meaning of love
