[Intro]
(Touch me, touch me, touch me, touch me)
(Touch me, touch me, touch me, touch me)

[Interlude]

[Verse 1]
Death is everywhere
There are flies on the windscreen for a start
Reminding us
We could be torn apart tonight

[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
Death is everywhere
There are lambs for the slaughter waiting to die
And I can sense
The hours slipping by tonight

[Chorus]
Come here, kiss me now
Come here, kiss me now

[Interlude]

[Verse 3]
Death is everywhere
The more I look, the more I see
The more I feel
A sense of urgency tonight

[Chorus]
Come here, kiss me now
(Touch me, touch me, touch me, touch me)
Come here, kiss me now
(Touch me, touch me, touch me, touch me)

[Interlude]
(Touch me, touch me, touch me, touch me)
(Touch me, touch me, touch me, touch me)

[Bridge]
There are flies on the windscreen
There are lambs for the slaughter
There are flies on the windscreen

[Chorus]
Come here, kiss me now
(Touch me, touch me, touch me, touch me)
Come here, kiss me now
(Touch me, touch me, touch me, touch me)

[Interlude]
(Touch me, touch me, touch me, touch me)
(Touch me, touch me, touch me, touch me)

[Chorus]
Come here, kiss me now
(Touch me, touch me, touch me, touch me)
Come here, kiss me now
(Touch me, touch me, touch me, touch me)
Come here, kiss me now
(Touch me, touch me, touch me, touch me)

Depeche Mode

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.
