Strangelove [1988 Single Edit]

[Verse 1: Dave Gahan & Alan Wilder]

There'll be times when my crimes

Will seem almost unforgivable

I give in to sin

Because you have to make this life livable

But when you think I've had enough from your sea of love

I'll take more than another riverful

Yes, and I'll make it all worthwhile

I'll make your heart smile

[Chorus: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]

Strangelove, strange highs and strange lows

Strangelove, that's how my love goes

Strangelove, will you give it to me?

[Post-Chorus: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]

Will you take the pain I will give to you

Again and again and will you return it?

[Verse 2: Dave Gahan]

I give in to sin

Because I like to practice what I preach

I'm not trying to say I'll have it all my way

I'm always willing to learn when you've got something to teach

Oh, and I'll make it all worthwhile

I'll make your heart smile

[Bridge: Martin L. Gore & Dave Gahan]

I'll say it again: pain

Pain, will you return it?

I'll say it again: pain

Pain, will you return it?

I won't say it again

[Chorus: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]

Strangelove, strange highs and strange lows

Strangelove, that's how my love goes

Strangelove, will you give it to me?

Strangelove, strange highs and strange lows

Strangelove, that's how my love goes

Strangelove, will you give it to me?

Strangelove, strange highs and strange lows

Strangelove, that's how my love goes

Strangelove, will you give it to me?

[Outro: Dave Gahan]

I give in, again and again

I give in, will you give it to me?

I give in, I won't say it again

I give in, again and again

I give in, that's how my...
