World In My Eyes Lyrics
Let me take you on a trip
Around the world and back
And you won't have to move
You just sit still
Now let your mind do the walking
And let my body do the talking
Let me show you the world in my eyes
I'll take you to the highest mountain
To the depths of the deepest sea
We won't need a map, believe me
Now let my body do the moving
And let my hands do the soothing
Let me show you the world in my eyes
That's all there is
Nothing more than you can feel now
That's all there is
Let me put you on a ship
On a long, long trip
Your lips close to my lips
All the islands in the ocean
All the heaven's in the motion
Let me show you the world in my eyes
That's all there is
Nothing more than you can touch now
That's all there is
Let me show you the world in my eyes

Blasphemous Rumours
Precious
A song about a tender, romantic, gentleman who wants to make love to (not F---) his partner, who is probably a virgin, and this guy is telling his virgin partner how sensational making love with him will be. It's not a song about F---ing or even about sex. It's about making love.
All you sex addicted m. f-ers need to understand that Depeche Mode is not about f--ing or sex. It's all about romanticism. In fact this band is not for everybody to be crazy about. Not for f-ing punks and junkies, f-ing idiots that say they love DM just for one song from the radio. This band is purely for all the guys and girls in this world that feel they have something romantic in their hearts and Depeche Mode makes us feel different from the others, makes us feel that we glide in this life because of this divine music. DM is my life and I am sure I´m not the only one in this world to say so. We are in fact a DM-Nation!!! Com on guys, who's with me?
P.S - ...the world in my eyes means - let me show you how f-ing romantic I am. Anatolie S., Moldova

@toliq wow gatekeeping much? The beauty of Depeche Mode is that most of their songs are multifaceted and can be perceived however the listener feels it relates to them. It may not be the original meaning, but I’d be willing to bet that your interpretation does not match what Martin intended. The more people that like DM the better, don’t discourage them because they only know it from the radio, educate them on what else there is!

shows how he wants his lady to see the way he sees her it might be that she is insecure and just kinda she take her and shows her everything from his point of view.
@mysenseofmind I love how you see this song. Makes me want to cry because I sent this song to a guy a like. And your interpretation describes me perfectly and how I see him.

Very erotic song, and it moves me in more ways than one. It's just so beautiful, seductive, and sensuous. Definitly 1st Rate stuff. No doubt about it!
What better way to start the best album every in ur career? The Violator album is flawless. This song like many DM songs hits ur soul. I never get sick of this album I have been listening to it since I was 14 years old way back in 1990 when this album first came out and it still is the best i have ever listened to. Even some hardcore metal fans love this album. I'll stand by my comment on Amazon and say that if everyone in the world had a copy of Violator the world would be a calmer place even just for an instant till the cd was finished playing LOL.
Funny, i always thought this was a song about a guy who's all talk. He promises the girl this highly spiritual out-of-body experience, and in the end he doesn't deliver. Hence the lines "that's all there is, nothing more that you can feel now, that's all there is". Doesn't sound like a great time was had. More like, "you kidding me? That's it?" The guy doesn't seem to mind though. He got what he wanted, and will most likely move on to the next conquest, seducing his target with the same smooth lines. I think the song's got a sarcastic undertone to it.
yes, i like to see it that way too, a contrast between the big promises and the shitty result.

" He got what he wanted, and will most likely move on to the next conquest, seducing his target with the same smooth lines. " Yup, that's why 'let me show you the world in my eyes' is repeated in the end again and again, presumably to different recipients.

There's also how the music itself signals a change of pace when entering the 'That's all there is' bit; it turns dramatic and ominous there whereas the rest of the song is almost upbeat.

Pretty sure it means showing a girl you are different from the other guys.
This song is about bringing a woman to orgasm. Men get off almost every time and he's saying, "Let me show you how good it can be when someone actually cares about what you feel." It's a very romantic notion since it's about being selfless in lovemaking. The line, "That's all there is. Nothing more than you can feel now" means nothing else in the world matters when you're coming. It's not about disappointment. On the contrary, it's about it being such a huge deal that for that moment it encompasses your whole world.
