[Intro: Dave Gahan]
Oh, yeah!

[Verse 1: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
I'm taking a ride with my best friend
I hope he never lets me down again
He knows where he's taking me
Taking me where I want to be
I'm taking a ride with my best friend
(Oh, yeah)

[Chorus: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
We're flying high
We're watching the world pass us by
Never want to come down
Never want to put my feet back down on the ground
(Oh!)

[Verse 2: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
I'm taking a ride with my best friend
I hope he never lets me down again (Oh)
Promises me I'm as safe as houses
As long as I remember who's wearing the trousers
I hope he never lets me down again
(Oh, no! Come on now. I want to hear you all sing with me!)
(Yeah!)
