Lyrics of 'Depeche Mode – A Question Of Time'

I've got to get to you first
Before they do
It's just a ques­tion of time
Before they lay their hands on you
And make you just like the rest
I've got to get to you first
It's just a ques­tion of time

Well now you're only fifteen
And you look good
I'll take you under my wing
Somebody should
They've per­suas­ive ways
And you'll believe what they say

It's just a ques­tion of time
It's run­ning out for you
It won't be long
Until you do
Exactly what they want you to

I can see them now Hanging around
To mess you up
To strip you down
And have their fun
With my little one

It's just a ques­tion of time
It's run­ning out for you

It won't be long
Until you do
Exactly what they want you to

It won't be long
Until you do
Exactly what they want you to

Sometimes I don't blame them
For want­ing you
You look good
And they need some­thing to do
Until I look at you
And then I con­demn them
I know my kind
What goes on in our minds

It's just a ques­tion of time

It should be better
It's just a ques­tion of time
It should be bet­ter with you
It's just a ques­tion of time
