If you need a friend
don't look to a stranger
you know in the end
I'll always be there
And when you're in doubt
and when you're in danger
take a look all around
and I'll be there
I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say
(I promise you)
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be
(I promise you)
but if you wait around the world, I'll make you fall for me
(I promise you)
I promise you, I promise you I will
When your day is through
and so is your temper
you know that to do
I'll always be there
Sometimes if I shout
it's not quite intended
these words just come out
with no cross to bear
I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say
(I promise you)
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be
(I promise you)
but if you wait around the world, I'll make you fall for me
(I promise you)
I promise you, I promise you
I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say
(I promise you)
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be
(I promise you)
but if I have to walk the world, and make you fall for me
(I promise you)
I promise you, I promise you I will
I gotta tell ya
I need to tell ya
I've got to tell ya
I gotta tell ya
I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say
(I promise you)
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be
(I promise you)
but if you wait around the world, I'll make you fall for me
(I promise you)
I promise you, I promise you
I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say
(I promise you)
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be
(I promise you)
but if I have to walk the world, and make you fall for me
(I promise you)
I promise you, I promise you I will
I will
I will

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Holiday

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
This song is not by Depeche Mode, its by When In Rome and it is called "The Promise".
Who labeled this song as being a DM song? I love this song though. Is the only song from "When In Rome" that was a hit.
I could see how someone would think this is DM. It' really tame for them though, the is the only reason I could never mistake it for them. Even DM's poppiest songs aren't this tame. But this is an excellent song though.
Please correct this. This is not a Depeche Mode song!. Why do so many people think it is....it's not even close to their style.
These lyrics were in the wrong place at the wrong time For the wrong reason and the wrong rhyme On the wrong artist of the wrong year He used the wrong selection with the wrong technique
Wrong.
