Depeche Mode Tributo Argentino Vol. 3

Thomas Frenken

I am the founder and main author of the international synth pop magazine Electrozombies. Since my childhood I have been a devotee of melancholic, gloomy electronic music. Started in the late 70s with minimal electro band Kraftwerk and become a real synth pop fan through Depeche Mode's hit 'People Are People' in 1984.

I took over the depechemodecovers.com website in 2024 and relaunched it. As a big fan of Depeche Mode and cover versions, I dedicate myself passionately to this project.

Lyrics of "It's No Good"

I’m going to take my time
I have all the time in the world
To make you mine
It is written in the stars above
The gods decree
You’ll be right here by my side
Right next to me
You can run, but you cannot hide

Don’t say you want me
Don’t say you need me
Don’t say you love me
It’s understood
Don’t say you’re happy
Out there without me
I know you can’t be
Cause it’s no good

I’ll be fine
I’ll be waiting patiently
Till you see the signs
And come running to my open arms

When will you realize
Do we have to wait till our worlds collide
Open up your eyes
You can’t turn back the tide

Don’t say you want me
Don’t say you need me
Don’t say you love me
It’s understood
Don’t say you’re happy
Out there without me
I know you can’t be
Cause it’s no good

I’m going to take my time
I have all the time in the world
To make you mine
It is written in the stars above
