[Verse 1: Martin L. Gore]
Fragile, like a baby in your arms
Be gentle with me, I'd never willingly do you harm
Apologies are all you seem to get from me
But just like a child, you make me smile when you care for me
And you know
[Chorus: Martin L. Gore]
It's a question of lust, it's a question of trust
It's a question of not letting what we've built up crumble to dust
It is all of these things and more
That keep us together
[Verse 2: Martin L. Gore]
Independence is still important for us though (We realise)
It's easy to make the stupid mistake of lеtting go (Do you know what I mean?)
My weaknessеs, you know each and every one (It frightens me)
But I need to drink more than you seem to think before I'm anyone's
And you know
[Chorus: Martin L. Gore]
It's a question of lust, it's a question of trust
It's a question of not letting what we've built up crumble to dust
It is all of these things and more
That keep us together
[Bridge: Martin L. Gore]
Kiss me goodbye when I'm on my own
But you know that I'd rather be home
[Chorus: Martin L. Gore]
It's a question of lust, it's a question of trust
It's a question of not letting what we've built up crumble to dust
It is all of these things and more
That keep us together
It's a question of lust, it's a question of trust
It's a question of not letting what we've built up crumble to dust
It is all of these things and more
That keep us together
[Interlude]
[Chorus: Martin L. Gore]
It's a question of lust, it's a question of trust

That keep us together
[Chorus: Martin L. Gore]
It's a question of lust, it's a question of trust
It's a question of not letting what we've built up crumble to dust
