Mission, The - Love Me To Death Lyrics






Let me come inside your ivory tower
Let me come inside your hallowed walls
God, it's heaven in here
Fix me with your hand of praise
Fix me with your touch of precious thrills
Your fingers dance across my skin
Reaching out for the pride of man

Hand in hand, flesh in flesh
We're walking through the fire of love
Breath by breath, and flame by flame
We burn till the sun rises and shines hot
Love comes gushing, love runs free
My love comes all over you
My love comes for you

Love me to death, my flower
Run barefoot through my hair
Naked on my lips
Love me to death, my precious
Smother me with kisses
Drown me in your waves of falling sweetness

Hold me dear, bury me deep
Bless me with your word of savage honour
We love more by fate than design
So give me your hand and I'll gladly give you my life
A flower, that sways in the breeze
You must be stronger than the winds that blow you away
Blow you away

Love me to death, my precious
Run barefoot through my hair
Dance wild on my lips
Love me to death, my flower
Lay me down on your bed of petals
Cover me with your honey, my blossom

Love me to death
Love me to death
Love me to death, my flower
Love me to death, my treasure
Run barefoot through my hair
Dance wild on my heart
Love me to death, my precious
Love me to death, my love
Tarnish, taint and punish me softly
Softly love me to death
Love me to death

    Utter perfection. I listen to all kinds of music, regardless of genre, and this song is fucking ridiculous. I remember first hearing this in Victoria, Canada, 1986 and going: "This is MY band, for life!!!!" I still believe in God, and he believes in The Mish,because they are a fun bunch of lads!!!! PS Skink's guitar break is beyond bonkers!!!!!!

    I can't help but wonder if this inspired Peter Steele for Type O Negative's "October Rust" album song "Love You To Death"

  8. J.... M....

    Lembranças de minha adolescência um dos primeiros álbuns de minha coleção fantástico.

    Once upon a time I had a love that I could not appreciate. I lost her forever and this song reminds me so much of Jasmin. We would listen to this song and I swear I could see forever in her eyes. A year ago today she left me. 8 years together and all that love died away. I miss you Jasmin. I love you forever.

  18. A.... W....

    First goth band that I went to see in the 80s. Absolutely brilliant night that I will never forget, love this song xx

    Every song on this album evokes memories of LA in the 80's.Fuck Bono by the by he's a wanker.

    Let me come inside your ivory tower
    Let me come inside your hallowed walls
    God, it's heaven in here
    Fix me with your hand of praise
    Fix me with your touch of precious thrills

    Your fingers dance across my skin
    Reaching out for the pride of man

    Hand in hand, flesh in flesh
    We're walking through the fire of love
    Breath by breath and flame by flame
    We burn 'til the sun rises and shines hot

    Love comes gushing, love runs free
    My love comes all over you
    My love comes for you

    Love me to death, my flower
    Run bare fur through my hair
    Naked on my lips
    Love me to death, my precious
    Smother me with kisses
    Drown me in your waves of falling sweetness

    Hold me dear, bury me deep
    Bless me with your word of savage honor
    We love more by fate than design
    So give me your hands
    And I'll gladly give you my life

    A flower that sways in the breeze
    You must be stronger
    Than the winds that blow you away
    Blow you away

    Love me to death, my precious
    Run bare fur through my hair
    Dance wild on my lips
    Love me to death, my flower
    Lay me down on your bed of petals
    Cover me with your honey, my blossom

    (Love me to death, love me to death)
    Love me to death, my flower
    (Love me to death)
    Love me to death, my treasure
    Run bare fur through my hair
    (Love me to death)
    Dance wild on my heart

    Love me to death, my precious
    (Love me to death)
    Love me to death, my love
    Tarnish, taint and punish me softly
    (Love me to death)
    Softly love me to death, love me to death

    +mario marianof explicit and deep

    m.... m....

    mario marianof Thankyou xx

    m.... m....

    Is this about sex ? I dont get it ?!

  28. m.... ....

    A fucking great song to listen to.

  29. T.... ....

    Maybe I'm just weird, but this is the best song to climax to if you were an 80's teen.  Either way - amazing, shadowed only (possibly) by Blood Brother which I loved for very, very different reasons

    T.... ....

    Amazing isn't it - I was an 80's teen by the way )0(

    T.... ....

    had plenty of sex to this album

    T.... ....

    Carrionhue... you do know that it doesn't count if you were there by yourself...

  30. B.... ....

    Lovely song but does raise a giggle for some of the lyrics....!

  31. I.... H....

    Happy Birthday to you Diter Pitch. Spanish kisses ;)

  32. J.... -....

    Wayne Hussey - The Bono of goth

    J.... -....

    +JVNTA -E m p i r Ǝ- Yeah, he sounded quite a lot like Bono at times.

    J.... -....

    Most definately - such talent )0(

    J.... -....

    No way. Bono is a wanker. Wayne Hussey has always been hell of a singer and hell of a songwriter. Not to mention he's the real legend. ;)

    J.... -....

    The voice of bono is fuking trash

    J.... -....

    @Victor Albertos exactly, fooking rubbish, mate 😀

  33. N.... M....

    Grande som

  34. Z.... N....

    Yes, the vocals by Juliane Regan from All About Eve, in Severina Too.... 

  35. M.... L....

    Is Juliane Regan at the chorus again? :O

    M.... L....

    Yessssssssss

  36. o.... ....

    good music. 

  37. t.... ....

    Love to death

  38. m.... g....

    this is a well naughty song, got to love them, changed my life one night in peterborough

    m.... g....

    mark goodyer how is this naughty what did you do

    m.... g....

    @Kayleigh Robinson Read the lyrics!

  39. S.... V....

    I die for this song.

  40. m.... ....

    Regan not Moore (a redheaded actress)

  41. H.... ....

    brilliant guitar intro. Huss is a seriously under rated guitarist.

  42. F.... S....

    Intenso, e maravilhoso!!!

  43. J.... S....

    why does any song that sings about sex is cheezy? it's a cool song despite that "my love cums for you" bit. My blossom! maybe people just can't take anything love-related seriously

  44. l.... A....

    quente e profundo...sempre

  45. l.... A....

    ouvi tanto esse som...

  46. s.... ....

    Wayne Hussey never claimed to be anything other than a pop artist. At least he isn't bragging about his 8 inch dick like Lil' Wayne.

  47. M.... ....

    There's a better, slower, more Gothic-sounding version somewhere that is WORLDS better.

    M.... ....

    The Mission is gothic rock...sometimes, just sometimes, gothic rock artists can produce happy/upbeat songs.

  48. A.... B....

    Cheesy and tacky... this dude is writing about love and sex and his lyrical metaphors are cliche and transparent. It feels like this song would be way better if the lyrics didn't suck so much.

  49. x.... ....

    <3 <3 <3

  50. b.... ....

    Perfection! Never any song has dazed me as this one by first-time hearing.

  51. s.... ....

    Fucking amazing! I can´t describe how beautiful that lyrics are.

  52. M.... S....

    i love this song, join me, lets sing the chorus!!! yeah!

  53. M.... S....

    when i hear this song i want to scream loud and sing, love me to death muy flower!!!

  54. D.... C....

    I've got this instrumental version on 12" and I have been trying to play it off and on for the last 25 years. Still haven't got it, but what a great piece of music. Hussey could pluck your heart strings.

    D.... C....

    I've got the sheet music for it. Some unusual open stringed chords. Sounds fantastic on 12 string.

  55. m.... ....

    I love this song

  56. F.... S....

    lindaa *-*

  57. m.... ....

    Beautiful

  58. D.... R....

    i was 18 when this came out an i use to play this song over an over again to the point where me dad said is that the only song on the album

  59. J.... W....

    All these years, and I still get goosebumps...

  60. D.... ....

    I love Mission to death!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  61. P.... M....

    his voice still melts me

  62. F.... C....

    Long time ago, I miss those days!

  63. e.... b....

    love the mission... love me to death..

  64. D.... E....

    Love this song!

  65. 9.... ....

    The voice of Wayne Hussey and the sweet choruses of Juliane Moore, match perfectly!!
    A real classic song, but underrated for the masses...Fortunatelly!!

  66. o.... ....

    wow, the memories...still good today

  67. C.... A....

    what could be more perfect?

  68. M.... ....

    woah, I think this is the first time I've heard this song in.. what, two years at least? I can't believe I stopped listening to The Mission, they're amazing.
    I can't wait for their concert in October! *_______*

  69. M.... S....

    BUFFFFF, QUE BUENA MUSICA, INCOMPARABLE, AUTENTICA, ME PONE LA PIEL DE GALLINA, AHORA AÑOS MUCHO MAS TARDE LA OIGO Y AUN ME EMOCIONA Y ME HACE SENTIR ALGO EN LO MAS PROFUNDO, ME ELEVA

  70. E.... B....

    a perfect song

  71. E.... B....

    the best band

  72. M.... S....

    ...give me your hands and I'll gladly give you my life...

  73. W.... ....

    Love the guitar on this song.

  74. R.... f....

    becose i never die

  75. M.... T....

    siis pakko soittaa vinyyliltä justkin nyt :-D

  76. s.... ....

    I love the version Eva O does of this song. She is just as amazing in her own way as good ol Wayne is on this original.

  77. s.... ....

    Shere.. for you... love of my live...

  78. H.... ....

    you are so right...
