The Meaning Of Love
Depeche Mode · The Singles 81>85
I´VE READ MORE THAN A HUNDRED BOOKS
SEEING LOVE MENTIONED MANY THOUSAND TIMES
BUT DESPITE ALL THE PLACES I´VE LOOKED
IT´S STILL NO CLEARER
IT´S JUST NOT ENOUGH
I´M STILL NO NEARER
The meaning of love
The meaning of love
The meaning of love
NOTED DOWN ALL MY OBSERVATIONS
SPENT AN EVENING WATCHING TELEVISION
STILL I COULDN´T SAY WITH PRECISION
KNOW IT´S A FEELING AND IT COMES FROM ABOVE
BUT WHAT´S THE MEANING
The meaning of love
The meaning of love
Tell me
The meaning of love
FROM THE NOTES THAT I´VE MADE SO FAR
LOVE SEEMS SOMETHING LIKE WANTING A SCAR
WELL I COULD BE WRONG
I´M JUST NOT SURE YOU SEE
I´VE NEVER BEEN IN LOVE BEFORE
NEVER BEEN IN LOVE BEFORE
NEVER BEEN IN LOVE BEFORE
NEXT I ASKED SEVERAL FRIENDS OF MINE
IF THEY COULD SPARE A FEW MINUTES OF THEIR TIME
THEIR LOOKS SUGGESTED THAT I´VE LOST MY MIND
TELL ME THE ANSWER
MY LORD HIGH ABOVE
The meaning of love
The meaning of love
The meaning of love
Tell me...
FROM THE NOTES THAT I´VE MADE SO FAR
LOVE SEEMS SOMETHING LIKE WANTING A SCAR
WELL I COULD BE WRONG
I´M JUST NOT SURE YOU SEE
