[Chorus: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
Here is the house where it all happened
Those tender moments under this roof
Body and soul come together
As we come closer together
And as it happens, it happens here in this house

[Verse 1: Dave Gahan]
And I feel your warmth and it feels like home
And there's someone calling on the telephone
Let's stay home, it's cold outside
And I have so much to confide to you

[Pre-Chorus: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
With or without words, I'll confide everything

[Chorus: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
Here is the house where it all happened
Those tender moments under this roof
Body and soul come together
As we come closer together
And as it happens, it happens here in this house

[Verse 2: Dave Gahan]
So we stay at home and I'm by your side
And you know what's going on inside
Inside my heart, inside this house
And I just want to let it out for you

[Bridge: Dave Gahan, Martin L. Gore]
And I feel your warmth and it feels like home
And I feel your warmth and it feels like home
Home
Home

[Chorus: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
Here is the house where it all happened (Here is the house)
Those tender moments under this roof
Body and soul come together
As we come closer together (Home)
Here is the house where it all happened (Here is the house)
Those tender moments under this roof
Body and soul come together
As we come closer together (Home)
Here is the house where it all happened (Here is the house)
Those tender moments under this roof
Body and soul come together
As we come closer together
(Home)
(Home)
(Home)

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.
