"Sanctuary" LYRICS MADONNA

MADONNA LYRICS

"Sanctuary"

[Spoken:]
Surely whoever speaks to me in the right voice
Him or her I shall follow

Who needs the sun, when the rain's so full of life
Who needs the sky
It's here in your arms I want to be buried
You are my sanctuary

Who needs the sun, when the rain's so full of life
Who needs the sky, when the ground's open wide
It's here in your arms I want to be buried
You are my sanctuary

Who needs a smile, when a tear's so full of love
Who needs a home, with the stars up above
It's here in your heart I want to be carried
You are my sanctuary

Who needs the light, with the darkness in your eyes
Who needs to sleep, with the stars in the sky
It's here in your soul I want to be married
You are my sanctuary

[Spoken:]
And the earth was void and empty
And darkness was upon the face of the earth

Is all of this pain so necessary
You are my sanctuary

[Spoken:]
Surely whoever speaks to me in the right voice
Him or her I shall follow
As the water follows the moon, silently

Who needs the sun (with fluid steps)
Who needs the sky (around the globe)
Who needs to sleep (I hear your voice)
You are (you are) my sanctuary
You are (you are, you are)
You are (you are) my sanctuary

"One More Chance" LYRICS MADONNA

MADONNA LYRICS

"One More Chance"

I turned around too late to see the fallen starI fell asleep and never saw the sun go downI took your love for grantedThought luck was always on my sideI turned around too late and you were gone

[Chorus:]

So give me one more chanceDarlin' if you care for meLet me win your love'Cause you were always there for meIf you care for me,Be there for me

I like to play the queen of hearts and never thought I'd loseI rolled the dice but never showed my handI planned it out so perfectly,So you'd never leave a girl like meI was a fool, but now I understand

[chorus]

Here is the law of the landYou play with fire and you'll get burnedHere is the lesson I've learnedThat you don't know what you've got til it's gone

[chorus, without last two lines]

Gimme one more chanceTell me that it's not too lateLet me win your loveDarlin' please don't hesitateIf you care for me,Be there for me

Give me one more chance

MADONNA LYRICS

"This Used To Be My Playground"

[Chorus (first time without background vocals):]

This used to be my playground (used to be)This used to be my childhood dreamThis used to be the place I ran toWhenever I was in needOf a friendWhy did it have to endAnd why do they always say

Don't look backKeep your head held highDon't ask them whyBecause life is shortAnd before you knowYou're feeling oldAnd your heart is breakingDon't hold on to the pastWell that's too much to ask

[Long and movie versions only:]

[chorus]Live and learnWell the years they flewAnd we never knewWe were foolish thenWe would never tireAnd that little fireIs still alive in meIt will never go awayCan't say goodbye to yesterday (can't say goodbye)

[chorus]

No regretsBut I wish that youWere here with meWell then there's hope yetI can see your faceIn our secret placeYou're not just a memorySay goodbye to yesterday (the dream)Those are words I'll never say (I'll never say)

This used to be my playground (used to be)This used to be our pride and joyThis used to be the place we ran toThat no one in the world could dare destroy

[Short and movie versions only:]

This used to be our playground (used to be)This used to be our childhood dreamThis used to be the place we ran toI wish you were standing here with me

[Movie version only:]

This used to be our playground (used to be)This used to be our great escapeThis used to be the place we ran toThis used to be our secret hiding place

This used to be our playground (used to be)This used to be our childhood dreamThis used to be the place we ran toThe best things in life are always freeWishing you were here with me

"Love Tried To Welcome Me"

These are my hands, but what can they give me?These are my eyes, but they cannot seeThese are my arms, but they don't know tendernessAnd I must confess that I am usually drawn to sadnessAnd loneliness has never been a stranger to me, but

[Chorus:]

Love tried to welcome meBut my soul drew backGuilty of lust and sinLove tried to take me in

These are my lips, but they whisper sorrowThis is my voice, but it's telling liesI know how to laugh, but I don't know happinessAnd I must confess, instead of spring, it's always winterAnd my heart has always been a lonely hunter, but still

[Chorus2:]

Love tried to welcome meBut my soul drew backI was covered with dust and sinLove tried to take me in

"What Can You Lose" LYRICS MADONNA

MADONNA LYRICS

"What Can You Lose"

What can you lose?Only the blues.Why keep concealing everything you're feeling?Say it to her, what can you lose?Maybe it shows,She's had clues, which she chose to ignore.Maybe though she knows,And just wants to go on as before.As a friend, nothing moreSo she closes the door.

Well, if she doesThose are the dues.Once the words are spoken,Something may be broken.Still, you love herWhat can you lose?

But what if she goes?At least now, you have part of her.What if she had to choose?

Leave it aloneHold it all in.Better a boneDon't even begin.With so much to win,There's too much to lose.

"More" LYRICS MADONNA

MADONNA LYRICS

"More"

Once upon a time I had plenty of nothing,Which was fine with me.Because I had rhythm, music, love,The sun, the stars and the moon above,Had the clear blue sky and the deep blue sea.That was when the best things in life were free.

Then time went by and now I got plenty of plenty,Which is fine with me.'Cause I still got love, I still got rhythm,But look at what I got to go with 'em."Who could ask for anything more?", I hear you query.Who would ask for anything more? Well, let me tell you, dearie.

Got my diamonds, got my yacht, got a guy I adore.I'm so happy with what I got, I want more!

Count your blessings, one, two, threeI just hate keeping score.Any number is fine with meAs long as it's moreAs long as it's more!

I'm no mathematician, all I know is additionI find counting a bore.Keep the number mounting, your accountant does the counting.(More! More!)

I got rhythm, music too, just as much as beforeGot my guy and my sky of blue,Now, however, I own the view.More is better than nothing, trueBut nothing's better than more, more, moreNothing's better than more.

One is fun, why not two?And if you like two, you might as well have four,And if you like four, why not a fewWhy not a slew(More! More!)

If you've got a little, why not a lot?Add and bit and it'll get to be an oodle.Every jot and tittle adds to the potSoon you've got the kit as well as the caboodle.(More! More!)

Never say when, never stop at plenty,If it's gonna rain, let it pour.Happy with ten, happier with twentyIf you like a penny, wouldn't you like many much more?

Or does that sound too greedy?That's not greed, no, indeedyThat's just stocking the storeGotta fill your cupboard, remember Mother Hubbard.(More! More!)

Each possession you possessHelps your spirits to soar.That's what's soothing about excessNever settle for something less.Something's better than nothing, yes!But nothing's better than more, more more(Except all, all, all)Except all, all, allExcept once you have it all (have it all)You may find all else above (find all else above)That though things are bliss,There's one thing you miss, and that'sMore! More!More! More! More! More!More! More! More!

"Something To Remember"

Seems I've played the game for much too longI let people buy my love and INever got to sing my songs for you.

I had all my bets laid all on youSet your stakes too high, you're bound to lose.In the game of love you pay your dues.

Say that happiness cannot be measured,And a little pain can bring you all life's little pleasures.What a joke.

[Chorus:]

I was not your woman, I was not your friend,But you gave me something to remember.No other man said love yourselfNobody else can.We weren't meant to be,At least not in this lifetime,But you gave me something to remember.I hear you still say, "Love yourself".

I had all my bets laid all on youSet your stakes too high, you're bound to lose.In the game of love I've paid my dues.

Guess I'm waiting for my place in your sun,Wish I had the chance to know you and it wasn't stormy weather.What a shame, who's to blame?

"Cry Baby"

My guy is really something, he's sensitive and shyMy guy is such a bumpkin, it doesn't take much to make him cry.If you hurt someone helpless, it's like taking away all his toys,He's just a cry baby boy.

My guy is sentimental, he's always feeling blueHe can be so temperamental and I don't know what I should do.If you step on a little bug he cries all over the floor,He's just a cry baby bore.

[Chorus:]

I don't want to hurt his feelings,But his outbursts have me reallyBoo-hoo-hoo-ing all the time,If I turn out like him, I think I'm gonna cry, babyLa, la, la, la, la, la,He's such a cry baby,La, la, la, la, la, la.

[Spoken:] And I'll tell you something else

My guy is such a wet noodle, he's always teary-eyedHe acts like a real cock-a-doodle, he can't even tell you why.If you just play him a sappy song, he acts like his doggie just died,He's just a cry baby guy.

[Spoken:] No kidding, oh dear

My guy is such a whiner, he's worse than baddie soA cockroach seen in the diner, and the tears flow out of the blue.And if I ask him to knock it off, he goes and cries in the can,He's such a cry baby man.

[chorus]

I love a cry baby,La, la, la, la, la, la.He's such a cry baby,La, la, la, la, la, la.

[Spoken:] Would you knock it off please? Thank you.

"Sooner Or Later" LYRICS MADONNA

MADONNA LYRICS

"Sooner Or Later"

Sooner or later you're gonna be mine,Sooner or later you're gonna be fine.Baby, it's time that you face it,I always get my man.

Sooner or later you're gonna decide,Sooner or later there's nowhere to hide.Baby, it's time, so why waste it in chatter?Let's settle the matter.

Baby, you're mine on a platter,I always get my man.

But if you insist, babe, the challenge delights me.The more you resist, babe, the more it excites me.And no one I've kissed, babe, ever fights me again.If you're on my list, it's just a question of when.

When I get a yen, then baby, Amen.I'm counting to ten, and then ...

I'm gonna love you like nothing you've known,I'm gonna love you, and you all alone.Sooner is better than later but lover,I'll hover, I'll plan.

This time I'm not only getting, I'm holding my man.

MADONNA LYRICS

"He's A Man"

All work and no play,Makes Dick a dull dull boy, career gets in the way.Square jaw, ooo, such a handsome face,Why do you have to save the human race?

Life of crime, no it never pays,Clean up the streets and make your secret get-away.All alone, in your room with your radio,No one to hold you, had to let her go.

[Chorus:]

You're a man with a gun in your hand,Waging a war between good and evil can be a bore.If you don't take time, it's not nice,So here's my advice:Take your love on the run,Oh God, let me be the one.Ah, ah, ah, man with a gun

All boss and no brains,Bullies and thugs, they take up all your time in vain.Can't let go, someone cries and you hear the call,Who's gonna catch you, don't good guys ever fall?

[chorus]

All alone, in your room with your radio,No one to hold you, I would never let you go.

[chorus, with last line:]'Cause I can show you some fun

[spoken]And I don't mean with a gun. No.

You are a man with a gun in your hand;Waging a war between good and evil can be a bore.If you don't take time, it's not nice,So here's my advice:Take your love on the run,Oh God, let me be the one.Ah, ah, ah, man with a gun, take it out of your hand;

Waging a war between good and evil can be a bore.If you don't make time, it's not nice,So here's my advice:Take your love on the run,Oh God, let me be the one.

"Promise To Try"

Little girl don't you forget her faceLaughing away your tearsWhen she was the one who felt all the pain

Little girl never forget her eyesKeep them alive insideI promise to try -- it's not the same

Keep your head held high -- ride like the windNever look behind, life isn't fairThat's what you said, so I try not to care

Little girl don't run away so fastI think you forgot to kiss -- kiss her goodbye

Will she see me cry when I stumble and fallDoes she hear my voice in the night when I callWipe away all your tears, it's gonna be all right

I fought to be so strong, I guess you knewI was afraid you'd go away, too

Little girl you've got to forget the pastAnd learn to forgive meI promise to try -- but it feels like a lie

Don't let memory play games with your mindShe's a faded smile frozen in timeI'm still hanging on -- but I'm doing it wrongCan't kiss her goodbye -- but I promise to try

I have a tale to tellSometimes it gets so hard to hide it wellI was not ready for the fallToo blind to see the writing on the wall

Chorus:

A man can tell a thousand liesI've learned my lesson wellHope I live to tellThe secret I have learned, 'till thenIt will burn inside of me

I know where beauty livesI've seen it once, I know the warm she givesThe light that you could never seeIt shines inside, you can't take that from me

(chorus)

2nd Chorus:

The truth is never far behindYou kept it hidden wellIf I live to tellThe secret I knew thenWill I ever have the chance again

If I ran away, I'd never have the strengthTo go very farHow would they hear the beating of my heartWill it grow coldThe secret that I hide, will I grow oldHow will they hearWhen will they learnHow will they know

(chorus)(2nd chorus)
