Who goes straight back out To do it all over again. I’ll be back for more. It’s something That is out of our hands. Something we will never understand It’s a hidden law The apple falls. Destiny calls I follow you. VERSE 2: Like a pawn On the eternal board. Who’s never quite sure What he’s moved towards. I walk blindly on And heaven is in front of me. Your heaven beckons me enticingly When I arrive. It’s gone The river flows. The wise man knows I follow you. CHORUS 1: (Hawaiian guitar refrain over) I’m yearning I’m burning. I feel love’s wheels turning. VERSE 3: (Synth & Bass over) Like a moth on love’s bright light I will get burned. Each and every night I’m dying to(o). The sun will shine.

(Descending lead over) The bottom line I follow you. CODA: (Keyboards Synth & Bass) |N/C |N/C | (Fade) [End] NOTES: 1. In 1999 Ned Raggett (US music journalist) ranked the album at number 50 on his list of "The Top 136 Or So Albums Of The Nineties". 2. This version is based on my experience of DM’s ’dark’ tunings and how Martin Gore matches them to suit David Gahan’s voice. 3. Despite Gahan’s prolonged absences from the studio we are all indebted that Gore persisted to make this milestone album. "…Despite Gahan’s increasingly severe personal problems Gore tried repeatedly during 1995 and 1996 to get the band recording again. However Gahan would rarely turn up to scheduled sessions and when he did it would take weeks to get any vocals recorded. …" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depeche_Mode

Cette chanson évoque la quête incessante de l’amour et de la compréhension, à travers des métaphores puissantes. L’artiste fait référence à des images de vulnérabilité et de détermination, comme un animal pris par la tempête qui finit toujours par retourner à l’extérieur, ou un pion sur un échiquier, en proie à l'incertitude quant à son avenir. Il exprime un désir ardent, un besoin irrépressible de suivre un chemin dicté par les forces invisibles du destin. Sortie en 1997 sur l'album "Ultra", cette œuvre s'inscrit dans un moment charnière pour le groupe, alors que l'un de ses membres traversait des difficultés personnelles. La musique, à la fois sombre et mélodieuse, reflète ces luttes intérieures tout en conservant une élégance qui invite à la réflexion.
