-- [ From: Richard Brem * EMC.Ver #2.5.02 ] --


Come with me
Into the trees 
We'll lay on the grass
And let the hours pass

Take my hand
Come back to the land
Let's get away
Just for one day

Let me see you
Stripped down to the bone

Metropolis
Has nothing on this
You're breathing in fumes
I taste when we kiss

Take my hand
Come back to the land
Where everything's ours
For a few hours

Let me see you 
Stripped down to the bone

Let me hear you 
Make decisions
Without your television
Let me hear you speaking 
Just for me

Let me see you
Stripped down to the bone

Let me hear you crying 
Just for me


DEPECHE MODE  "Stripped"

Detail - for those interested: excerpts from Juenger's essay "Der Waldgang"
were translated into English in the mid-50s and published under the title
"The Retreat Into the Forest" in the review "Confluence" (edited by Henry
Kissinger) in June 1954, p. 127-142.
