Dave Gahan told the April 2009 of Rolling Stone Germany (translated from German):
<blockquote>
"Martin helped a lot [with my songs], he invested a lot of time, trying a lot. Sometimes I had to pressure him a little bit, but he had this idea with the backing vocals in 'Come Back', which is wonderful."

Lyrics


Come Back

Come back, come back to me

I'll be waiting, patiently

Come back, come back to me

I'll be waiting here patiently


Walking a thin white line between love and hate

Wasting all of my time in another world

In another place

I could use a little company

A little kindness could go a long way


Weeks turn into months

Months turn into years

Reaching the same conclusions

Gathering up the fear


Come back, come back to me

I'll be waiting, patiently

Come back, come back to me

I'll be waiting here patiently


Light will always shine in the heart of you

In truth and in reality

Only blindness can hide it away

I could use a little restraint

A little kindness can go a long way


Weeks turn into months

Months turn into years

Reaching the same conclusions

Gathering up the fear

Living the same delusion

Gathering up the fear


Come back
