"Nothing's Impossible" is a song from the 2005 album Playing The Angel by Depeche Mode.

Notes

Dave Gahan told the April 2009 of Rolling Stone Germany (translated from German):

"I think my songs are different [than Martin Gore's], a different character, wilder. Nevertheless, they fit better this time in the album than in 'Playing The Angel'. 'Nothing's Impossible' went into another direction than what I had as a demo. You can hear it in the [Sounds Of The Universe] boxset, it's great. This was my idea in the first place but I had to give it up."

Lyrics


Nothing's Impossible

Just give me a reason, some kind of sign

I'll need a miracle to help me this time

I heard what you said and I feel the same

I know in my heart that I'll have to change


Even the stars look brighter tonight

Nothing's impossible

I still believe in love at first sight

Nothing's impossible


How did we get to be this far apart

How did we get to be this far apart / Let's take a chance, go back to the start [1]

I want to be with you, have something to share

I want to be here, I'm not there


Even the stars look brighter tonight

Nothing's impossible

I still believe in love at first sight

Nothing's impossible


Even the stars look brighter tonight

Nothing's impossible

If you believe in love at first sight

Nothing's impossible


I still believe in love at first sight

Nothing's impossible

References

  1. The album version of Nothing's Impossible repeats the "How did we get to be this far apart" line for dramatic effect, replacing the original lyric "Let's take a chance, go back to the start" in the demo version. Dave often sings the original lyric in place of the repeated line during live versions of the song.
