Blue Dress
Depeche Mode · Violator
And don´t say a word
Put it on
The one that I prefer
Put it on
And stand before my eyes
Put it on
Please don´t question why
Can you believe
Something so simple
Something so trivial
Makes me a happy man
Can´t you understand
Say you belive
Just how easy
It is to please me
Because when you learn
You´ll know what makes the world turn
Put it on
I can feel so much
Put it on
I don´t need to touch
Put it on
Here before my eyes
Put it on
Because you realise
And you believe
Something so worthless
Serves a purpose
It makes me a happy man
Can´t you understand
Say you believe
Just how easy
It is to please me
Because when you learn
You´ll know what makes the world turn
