In Sympathy (Live in Tel Aviv) Lyrics

[Intro: Dave Gahan]
Wooohooo!
Good evening Tel Aviv!

[Verse 1: Dave Gahan]
They're almost falling over you
Why don't they call a truce
What ever they are trying to do
Its of little use
(Oh yeah!)
They're drowning you in compliments
Trying to furnish proof
Although they speak with eloquence
There is little truth

[Chorus: Dave Gahan]
You're bright, you're strong, you know the right from wrong
At least to some degree
You're wise, you're tough, you've heard their lies enough
You smile in sympathy
(Come on!)

[Verse 2: Dave Gahan]
I'm watching your serenity
The way your so transense
The tidiest absurdities
Your patience never ends
(Come on! Oh!)
And as the night begins to fade
(That's right!)
You're heading for the door
Followed by sad parade
You're on your own once more
[Chorus: Dave Gahan]
You're bright, you're strong, you know the right from wrong
At least to some degree
You're wise, you're tough, you've heard their lies enough
You smile in sympathy
(Oh!)

[Chorus: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
You're bright, you're strong, you know the right from wrong
At least to some degree
You're wise, you're tough, you've heard their lies enough
You smile in sympathy
(Thank you!)

[Outro: Dave Gahan]
Thank you
