Martin L. Gore

Martin Gore of Depeche Mode is a briliant songwriter. His music and lyrics have always amazed me. Since I worship him, I wanted to share his lyrics for Depeche Mode's new single, "Precious."

"Precious"
Depeche Mode
Words and music by Martin L. Gore


Precious and fragile things
Need special handling
My God what have we done to you
We always tried to share
The tenderest of care
Now look what we have put you through

Things get damaged
Things get broken
I thought we'd manage
But words left unspoken
Left us so brittle
There was so little left to give

Angels with silver wings
Shouldn't know suffering
I wish I could take the pain for you
If God has a master plan
That only He understands
I hope it's your eyes He's seeing through

Things get damaged
Things get broken
I thought we'd manage
But words left unspoken
Left us so brittle
There was so little left to give

I pray you learn to trust
Have faith in both of us
And keep room in your hearts for two

Things get damaged
Things get broken
I thought we'd manage
But words left unspoken
Left us so brittle
There was so little left to give

I saw depeche mode in 1987, but i cant remember where it was It was either the salt palace or the dee events center here in ogden.

It was like 3 and half hours long. I remember girls were passing out.
