[Chorus 1: Dave Gahan]
Come back, come back to me
I'll be waiting patiently
Come back, come back to me
I'll be waiting here patiently

[Verse 1: Dave Gahan]
Walking a thin white line
Between love and hate
Wasting all my time in another world
In another place
I could use a little company
A little kindness can go a long way "Oh, yeah!"

[Pre-Chorus 1: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
Weeks turn into months
Months turn into years
Reaching the same conclusions
Gathering up the fear "Oh, yeah!"

[Chorus 1: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
Come back, come back to me
I'll be waiting patiently
Come back, come back to me
I'll be waiting here patiently

[Verse 2: Dave Gahan]
Light will always shine
In the heart of you
In truth and in reality
Only blindness can hide it away "Oh, yeah!"
I could use a little restraints
A little kindness can go a long way "Oh, yeah! Oh!"

[Pre-Chorus 2: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
Weeks turn into months
Months turn into years
Reaching the same conclusions
Gathering up the fear
Living the same delusions
Gathering up the fear
Gathering up the fear
Gathering up the fear
Gathering up the fear "Oh!"

[Chorus 2: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
Come back "Oh, yeah!"
Come back
Come back
Come back "Oh, yeah!"
Come back "Hey!"
"Come on, Martin!"

[Outro: Dave Gahan]
"Thank you."

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.
