[Intro: Dave Gahan]
Let me take you on a trip
"Oh!"
"Yeah! That's alright"

[Verse 1: Dave Gahan]
Let me take you on a trip
Around the world and back
And you won't have to move, you just sit still
Now let your mind do the walking
And let my body do the talking
Let me show you the world in my eyes
"Hey!"

[Interlude]

[Verse 2: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
I'll take you to the highest mountain
To the depths of the deepest sea
And we won't need a map, believe me "Yeah!"
Now let my body do the moving
And let my hands do the soothing
Let me show you the world in my eyes
"Oh, yeah!"

[Chorus 1: Dave Gahan]
That's all there is
Nothing more than you can feel now
That's all there is
"Oh!"
"Oh, yeah. That's all."

[Interlude]
Let me take you on a trip

[Verse 3: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
Let me put you on a ship
On a long, long trip
Your lips close to my lips
All the islands in the ocean
All the heavens in motion
Let me show you the world in my eyes
"Oh, yeah!"

[Chorus 2: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
That's all there is
Nothing more than you can touch now
That's all there is
"Oh, yeah"

[Outro: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
Let me show you the world in my eyes
Let me show you the world in my eyes
"Yeah!"
Let me show you the world in my eyes
"Oh"
Let me show you the world in my eyes
Let me show you the world in my eyes
"Oh, yeah!"

Depeche Mode are recognized as one of the most artistically influential bands of the late 20th century. Commercially, they have released 14 studio albums to date, and sold more than 100 million records. Their most recent album, Spirit, hit the streets in March 2017.

The band got their start in Basildon, Essex in 1980, and named themselves after a French fashion magazine. They rose to fame with hits that have become “Just Can’t Get Enough” (1981), “Everything Counts” (1983), and “People Are People” (1984), to name a few. One of their most famous concerts was at the Pasadena Rose Bowl in 1988.

Martin Gore has been the band’s primary songwriter since Vince Clarke left in the early 1980s (and went on to form Yazoo and Erasure). Alan Wilder replaced Clarke on keyboards in 1982, but left in 1995 (reinvesting his creative energy in his band, Recoil, which he had started in 1986). Since then, the band has comprised frontman Dave Gahan, multi-instrumentalist Martin Gore, and keyboardist Andy Fletcher—all of whom are original members.
