[Intro: Martin L. Gore, (Dave Gahan)]
Let me tell you, let me tell you
Let me tell you, let me tell you
(I spoke from my heart)

[Interlude]

[Chorus: Martin L. Gore]
If I lend it to you, will you keep it safe for me?
I'll lend it to you if you treat it tenderly
There's something beating here inside my body
And it's called a heart

[Interlude: Dave Gahan]
I spoke from my heart

[Pre-Chorus: Martin L. Gore]
There's a lot to be learned
And you learn when your heart gets burnt
There's a lot to be learned
And you learn when your heart gets burnt
There's a lot to be learned
And you learn when your heart gets burnt

[Chorus: Martin L. Gore]
There's something beating here inside my body
And it's called a heart
[Interlude]

[Chorus: Martin L. Gore]
There's something beating here inside my body
And it's called a heart
You know how easy it is
To tear it apart
If I lend it to you, will you keep it safe for me?
I'll lend it to you if you treat it tenderly
There's something beating here inside my body
And it's called a heart
