ACROSS THE SKY (feat. Justin Timberlake and Timbaland)
Written by Madonna, T. Mosley, J. Timberlake and N. Hills
HARD CANDY ALBUM DEMO 2008
I'm no stranger to deception
I've lied and been lied to
I'm no paragon of virtue
But I wanna be with you
I've never been a righteous soul
And I don't pretend I am
But I walk the line when I'm with you
'Cause you make me believe I can
But we're running out of options
And we're running out of time
And I don't know if it's you or me
But it's time to speak your mind
CHORUS:
Because I'm travelling across the sky
When you're with me, your hand in mine
Our honesty will make us fly
Baby, travelling across the sky
Across the sky, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh
Across the sky, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh
Across the sky, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh
Across the sky, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh
I'm not good at keeping quiet
And I can't keep this tied down
But it's got to count for something
That we're still hanging around
If you need an explanation for
What's false and what is true
And I'd rather stop the world and think
That I could not be with you
But we're running out of options
And we're running out of time
And I don't know if it's you or me
But it's time to speak your mind
CHORUS:
Because I'm travelling across the sky
When you're with me, your hand in mine
Our honesty will make us fly
Baby, travelling across the sky
Across the sky, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh
Across the sky, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh
Across the sky, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh
Across the sky, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh
Across the sky, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh (Travelling across the sky)
Across the sky, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh (Travelling across the sky)
Across the sky, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh (Travelling across the sky)
Across the sky, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh (Travelling across the sky)...
ALONE WITH YOU
Written by Madonna
REBEL HEART ALBUM DEMO 2014
Don't you treat like I'm anybody
Not average, I'm not everyone
You criticize me like you're something special
But you're not
This is who I am, not ordinary
If you want the prize, better pay the price
Pointing out all the flaws in me like you were perfect
But you're not
CHORUS:
There you go
Didn't you make a convenient exit
I'd rather be on my own
I'd rather be all alone
There's something you didn't know
Here you come
Trying to make a convenient entrance
I'm turning my heart into stone
I'd rather be all alone
Than be alone with you
Try to shoot me down, it'll ricochet
You can't escape, always hear my name
I'd like to raise the glass to all your arrogance (look it up)
Call it what you want, you're history
I'll never understand, you're a mystery
You lied with every kiss and all comes down to this
CHORUS:
There you go
Didn't you make a convenient exit
I'd rather be on my own
I'd rather be all alone
There's something you didn't know
Here you come
Trying to make a convenient entrance
I'm turning my heart into stone
I'd rather be all alone
Than be alone with
I'd rather be all alone
Now I'm free
I'd rather be all alone
I'd rather be all alone
Now I'm free
I'd rather be all alone
You can't handle me...
ANIMAL
Written by Timbaland and Madonna
HARD CANDY ALBUM DEMO 2008
I can practice restraint if that's what you want
Let me zip up my boots, we can go for a walk
If I rein you in, you can follow my lead
We can ride so fast, just remember to breathe
If you start to gear up, then I'll tighten my grip
If you try to talk back, I'll be using my whip
Might be hard to hear you with my bit in your mouth
If it starts to hurt then you'll have to scream loud
There's no use going back 'cause the damage is done
Throw away all the rules 'cause there's gonna be none
Come on and let yourself go, 'cause there's no time to think
Now I'm in control of your animal instinct
CHORUS:
If you want, I'll treat you like an animal
If you want, I'll feed you like an animal
If you want, I'll hunt you like an animal
If you want, I'll treat you like an animal
If you misbehave, I can make you submit
If you start to act up, I can force you to quit
If you want me to break you, I can bring you to heel
Won't be hard to tame you when it's me that you fear
There's no use going back 'cause the damage is done
Throw away all the rules 'cause there's gonna be none
Come on and let yourself go, 'cause there's no time to think
Now I'm in control of your animal instinct
There's no use going back 'cause the damage is done
Go away, all the rules 'cause there's gonna be none
Come on and let yourself go, 'cause there's no time to think
Now I'm in control of your animal instinct
CHORUS:
If you want, I'll treat you like an animal
If you want, I'll feed you like an animal
If you want, I'll hunt you like an animal
If you want, I'll treat you like an animal
If you want, I'll treat you like an animal
If you want, I'll feed you like an animal
If you want, I'll hunt you like an animal
If you want, I'll treat you like an animal...
ARIOSO
Written by Madonna and William Orbit
MUSIC ALBUM DEMO 2000
Everyone's an authority
On who and what is good for me
Who I see?, what I wear?
CHORUS:
Everyone's a specialist
On where I've been
And who I've kissed
Choices I should make
The lovers I should take
Everyone's a connaisseur
How do they know?
What makes them so sure?
Do they know what's right for me?
Everyone's a know-it-all
But will they be there
To catch me when I fall
Or have they just come along for the show
The me nobody knows
Just what it's like, nobody sees
If they could just walk along in my shoes for a while
Then they could see just what it's like
CHORUS:
Everyone's a specialist
On where I've been
And who I've kissed
Choices I should make
The lovers I should take
The me nobody knows
Just what it's like, nobody sees
If they could just walk along in my shoes for a while
Then they could see just what it's like
The me nobody knows
Just what it's like...
The me nobody knows
Just what it's like...
Mmmmm, mmmm, mmmmm
If they could just walk along in my shoes for a while...

BAD GIRL (Guitar demo)
Written by Madonna and Shep Pettibone
EROTICA ALBUM DEMO 1992
Something's missing and I don't know why
I always feel the need to hide my feelings from you
Is it me or you that I'm afraid of
I tell myself I'll show you what I'm made of
Can't bring myself to let you go
Don't want to cause you any pain
But I love you just the same
And you'll always be my baby
In my heart I know we've come apart
And I don't know where to start
What can I do?
I don't wanna feel blue
CHORUS:
Bad girl drunk by six
Kissing someone else's lips
Smoked too many cigarettes today
I'm not happy when I act this way
Bad girl drunk by six
Kissing some kind stranger's lips
Smoked too many cigarettes today
I'm not happy
I'm not happy
Something's missing and I don't know why
I always feel the need to hide my feelings from you
Is it me or you that I'm afraid of
I tell myself I'll show you what I'm made of
Can't bring myself to let you go
I don't want to cause you any pain
But I love you just the same
And you'll always be my baby
In my heart I know we've come apart
And I don't know where to start
What can I do?
I don't wanna feel blue
CHORUS:
Bad girl drunk by six
Kissing someone else's lips
Smoked too many cigarettes today
I'm not happy when I act this way
Bad girl drunk by six
Kissing some kind stranger's lips
Smoked too many cigarettes today
I'm not happy
I'm not happy
This way...
BANG BANG (Early demo of Gang Bang)
Written by Madonna, William Orbit, Priscilla Hamilton, Keith Harris, Jean-Baptiste and Mika
MDNA ALBUM DEMO 2012
I should've known
When we met at the late show
You and me, dangerous
Sittin' way too close
2am, at my door
Where you dropped me off
Tell me how in the hell
Did I end up with my hand on the barrell
It's time that you paid
I want you to clean up the mess that you made
Like a bitch out of water
Like a bat out of hell
Like a fish out of water
I'm scared, can't you tell
CHORUS:
Bang Bang
Put my gun down on the table
Before you try to blow my mind
I used to think it was you
Who was so unstable?
But now I'm sure I'm close behind
B-B-Bang
B-B-Bang Bang Boom
I thought you were good
You painted me bad
Compared to the others
The best thing I had
But then I discovered
It couldn't get worse
You're buildin' my coffin
You're drivin' the hearse
I thought it was you
I loved you the most
But I was just keepin'
My enemies close
I made a decision to never look back
So how did you end up with all of my jack
Woh-oh-oh
Bang Bang
I should've known
You were too good to be true
You were hidin' both your horns
And I was such a fool
It's not a race
Wasn't trying to beat you
Trip me up, shut me down
When I was with you
Like a bitch out of water
Like a bat out of hell
Like a fish out of water
I'm scared, can't you tell
CHORUS:
Bang Bang
Put my gun down on the table
Before you try to blow my mind
I used to think it was you
Who was so unstable?
But now I'm sure I'm close behind
B-B-Bang
B-B-Bang Bang Boom
I thought you were good
You painted me bad
Compared to the others
The best thing I had
But then I discovered
It couldn't get worse
You're buildin' my coffin
You're drivin' the hearse
I thought it was you
I loved you the most
But I was just keepin'
My enemies close
I made a decision I had to employ
So how did you end up with all of my toys
I'm not your brother, not your lover
And I'm not your friend
Now that it's over you're another
Kind of different
A new person
Your time is up
And that's my blood in your dixie cup...
BE CAREFUL
Written by William Orbit and Madonna
RAY OF LIGHT DEMO ASSEMBLY
You do not wear it on your sleeve
You never did, I've never seen you bleed
You've got so many secrets, I don't know who you are
You keep yourself from being hurt
You can't feel much of anything, I'm sure
I never know just how you feel, I don't know if it's real
CHORUS:
Be careful with my heart, you could break it
Don't take my love for granted, things could change
Be careful with my heart, this is not a game
Be careful, be careful things could change...
Some days I think I'll lose my mind
You're so unhappy, sometimes you're so unkind
Then I see you smile and I know why I stay
I cannot live my life this way
There's so much more, I know that I should say
You have to feed my soul and I think you should know
CHORUS:
Be careful with my heart, you could break it
Don't take my love for granted, things could change
Be careful with my heart, this is not a game
Be careful, be careful things could change
Envy and doubt, I'm not your friend
Let all your secrets go, tell all your demons n
Love is a bird, she has to fly
Go to the core of you, I want much more of you...
I want to know your secrets, I don't know who you are
CHORUS:
Be careful with my heart, you could break it
Don't take my love for granted, things could change
Be careful with my heart, this is not a game
Be careful, be careful things could change
Be careful with my heart, you could break it
Don't take my love for granted, things could change
Be careful with my heart, this is not a game
Be careful, be careful things could change...

BEAUTIFUL SCARS
Written by Madonna, Rick Nowels, Dacoury Natche and Michael Tucker
REBEL HEART ALBUM DEMO 2014
Just take me with all my stupid flaws
Changing me is like shooting in the dark
Patience please, I'll never be as perfect as you want me to
Believe me, I want it just as bad
Forgive me, wish I could change the past
Take it cause I'll never be as perfect as you want
I think you're confusing me with somebody else
I won't apologize for being myself
CHORUS:
Take me with all of my beautiful scars
I love you the way that you are
I come to you with all my flaws
With all my beautiful scars
With all my beautiful scars
Love me with all of my flaws
My beautiful scars
Don't judge me, just gotta let me be
Accept me although I'm incomplete
My imperfections make me unique
That's my belief
I think you're confusing me with somebody else
I won't apologize for being myself
CHORUS:
Take me with all of my beautiful scars
I love you the way that you are
I come to you with all my flaws
With all my beautiful scars
With all my beautiful scars
Love me with all of my flaws
My beautiful scars
Never say never, anything is possible
Always been a rebel, overcoming obstacles
I can't give you perfect but I can give you forever, oh, oh
CHORUS:
Take me with all of my beautiful scars
I love you the way that you are
I come to you with all my flaws
With all my beautiful scars
I think they're beautiful
Take me with all of my beautiful scars

I come to you with all my flaws
With all my beautiful scars
With all my beautiful scars
Love me with all of my flaws
My beautiful scars
My beautiful scars
My beautiful scars...
BEAUTIFUL STRANGER
Written by Madonna and William Orbit
AUSTIN POWER: THE SPY WHO SHAGGED ME SOUNDTRACK 1999, GHV2 COMPILATION ALBUM 2001, CELEBRATION COMPILATION ALBUM 2009
Haven't we met?
You're some kind of beautiful stranger
You could be good for me
I've had the taste for danger
If I'm smart then I'll run away
But I'm not so I guess I'll stay
Heaven forbid
I'll take my chance on a beautiful stranger
I looked into your eyes
And my world came tumbling down
You're the devil in disguise
That's why I'm singing this song
To know you is to love you
You're everywhere I go
And everybody knows
To love you is to be part of you
I've paid for you with tears
And swallowed all my pride
CHORUS:
Da-da-da-dum da-dum da-dum da da da-da dum
Beautiful stranger
Da-da-da-dum da-dum da-dum da da da-da dum
Beautiful stranger
If I'm smart then I'll run away
But I'm not so I guess I'll stay
Haven't you heard
I fell in love with a beautiful stranger
I looked into your face
My heart was dancing all over the place
I'd like to change my point of view
If I could just forget about you
To know you is to love you
You're everywhere I go
And everybody knows
I looked into your eyes
And my world came tumbling down
You're the devil in disguise
That's why I'm singing this song to you
To know you is to love you
You're everywhere I go
And everybody knows
I've paid for you with tears
And swallowed all my pride
CHORUS:
Da-da-da-dum da-dum da-dum da da da-da dum
Beautiful stranger
Da-da-da-dum da-dum da-dum da da da-da dum
Beautiful stranger...
BETWEEN THE BARS (Cover by Madonna performed at Secret Project Revolution premiere 2013 and Tears of a Clown special show 2016)
Written by Elliott Smith
Drink up baby, stay up all night
With the things you could do
You won't but you might
The potential you'll be
That you'll never see
The promises you'll only make
Drink up with me now
And forget all about
The pressure of days
Do what I say
And I'll make you okay
And drive them away
The images stuck in your head
People you've been before
That you don't want around anymore
That push and shove and won't bend to your will
I'll keep them still
Drink up baby, look at the stars
I'll kiss you again between the bars
Where I'm seeing you there
With your hands in the air
Waiting to finally be caught
Drink up one more time
And I'll make you mine
Keep you apart,
Deep in my heart
Separate from the rest,
Where I like you the best
And keep the things you forgot
People you've been before
That you don't want around anymore
That push and shove and won't bend to your will
I'll keep them still...

BITTERSWEET (Poem read by Madonna)
Written by Rumi
A GIFT OF LOVE: MUSIC INSPIRED BY THE LOVE POEMS OF RUMI ALBUM 1998
In my hallucination
I saw my Beloved's flower garden
In my vertigo
In my dizziness
In my drunken haze
Whirling and dancing like a spinning wheel
I saw myself as the source of existence
I was there in the beginning
And I was the Spirit of Love
Now I am sober
There is only the hangover
And the memory of love
And only the sorrow
I yearn for happiness
I ask for help
I want mercy
And my Love says
"Look at me and hear me
Because I am here just with that"
I am your moon and your moonlight too
I am your flower garden and your water too
I have come all this way eager for you
Without shoes or shawl
I want you to laugh
To kill all your worries
To love you
To nourish you
Oh the sweet bitterness
I will soothe you and heal you
I will bring you roses
I too have been covered with thorns...
BODY SHOP
Written by Madonna, Toby Gad, Maureen McDonald, Larry Griffin Jr., Dacoury Natche and Michael Tucker
REBEL HEART ALBUM DEMO 2014
With all these curves we might need
To have the breaks looked at
So pop the hood and see what's good
I need a tune-up bad
My pressure's low, I'm on a roll
But my transmission's blown
I heard a thump, and then a knock
I hear you work at a body shop
I hear you work at a body shop
CHORUS:
You can keep it overnight
You can do whatever you like
Working overtime
Working on the line
You can polish the headlights
You can smooth out the fender
You can start the ignition
We can go on a bender
Stuck to the seat, our body heat
What will you do with this ass
Let's shift the gears, get outta here
We're stepping on the gas
We gotta bounce, we're going fast
Let's let the seat go back
You take the wheel
I'll sit on top
I hear you work at a body shop
I hear you work at a body shop
CHORUS:
You can keep it overnight
You can do whatever you like
Working overtime
Working on the line
You can keep it overnight
You can do whatever you like
Working overtime
Working on the line
Overheating the engine
Might be blowin' a gasket
Tighten up the suspension
And you don't have to ask it
I hear you work at a body shop
I hear you work at a body shop
I would drive to the ends of the earth for you
Jumpstart my heart, you know what you gotta do
I would ride through the dark of the night with you
Cross my heart and hope to die, it's true
CHORUS:
You can keep it overnight
You can do whatever you like
Working overtime
Working on the line
You can keep it overnight
You can do whatever you like
Working overtime
Working on the line
You can polish the headlights
You can smooth out the fender
You can start the ignition
We can go on a bender
I hear you work at a body shop...
BORN TO BE ALIVE (Backup vocals by Madonna 1979)
Written by Patrick Hernandez
BEST OF PATRICK HERNANDEZ COMPILATION ALBUM 1995
We were born to be alive
We were born to be alive
Born, born to be alive (born to be alive)
You see we're born, born, born, born to be alive
People ask me why
I never find a place to stop
And settle down, down, down
But I never wanted all the things
That people need to find their life, life, life
You see we're born, born, born to be alive (born too be alive)
You see we're born, born, born
It's good to be alive, to be alive, to be alive
It's good to be alive, to be alive, to be alive
It's good to be alive
Times was on my side when I was runnin'in the street
It was no bind, bind, bind
A suitcase and an old guitar and
It's all I need to occupy my
A mind like mine
You see we're born, born, born to be alive (born too be alive)
You see we're born, born, born
You see we're born, born, born to be alive (born too be alive)
You see we're born, born, born
You see we're born, born, born to be alive (born too be alive)
You see we're born, born, born
Born to be alive
You see we're born, born, born to be alive (born too be alive)
You see we're born, born, born, born to be alive...
BORROWED TIME
Written by Madonna, Tim Bergling, Arash Pournouri, Carl Falk, Rami Yacoub, Savan Kotecha, Dacoury Natche and Michael Tucker
REBEL HEART ALBUM DEMO 2014
Do we need to start a war?
Do we need to take the sign?
If we open up our eyes
Realize that we are blind
Is it all worth fighting for
It all comes down to
Who's wrong or right?
Who's black or white?
It doesn't matter what you're bleeding for
Straight or bi
Your God or mine
It doesn't matter underneath it all
CHORUS:
Cause we're only here to love
Like there's no tomorrow
So let's live each moment like
Our time is only borrowed
Do we need to build a bomb?
Do we need to fire a gun?
If you have to stand your ground
It's a war that can't be won
Is it all worth dying for
It all comes down to
Who's rich or poor?
Virgin or whore?
It doesn't matter what you're praying for
Death, alive
Your truth or mine
It doesn't matter underneath it all
CHORUS:
Cause we're only here to love
Like there's no tomorrow
So let's live each moment like
Our time is only borrowed...
BOUM
Written by Charles Trenet
HELLO SUCKERS! MUSICAL 2003
Je t'aime!
La pendule fait tic-tac-tic-tic
Les oiseaux du lac pic-pac-pic-pic
Glou-glou-glou font tous les dindons
Et la jolie cloche ding-dang-dong
Mais... boum!
Quand notre coeur fait boum
Tout avec lui dit boum
Et c'est l'amour qui s'éveille
Boum!
Thunder and lightning, boum
Can't you see love's in bloom
All of my heart goes boum, boum
Tout a changé depuis hier et la rue
A des yeux qui regardent aux fenêtres
Y'a du lilas et y'a des mains tendues
Sur la mer le soleil va paraître
Boum!
L'astre du jour fait boum
Tout avec lui dit boum
Quand notre coeur fait boum-boum
Le vent dans les bois fait hou-hou
La biche aux abois fait mêh-mêh
La vaisselle cassée fait fric-fric-frac
Et les pieds mouillés font flic-flic-flac
Mais... boum!
Now if you think that sounds silly in French
I'll be happy to sing it for you in my native tongue
The wind in the woods goes hou-hou
The silly little goat goes mêh-mêh
The broken dishes sound like fric-fric-frac
And my little feet go flic-flic-flac
Brrr!
Mais boum!
Quand notre coeur fait boum
Tout avec lui dit boum
L'oiseau dit boum, c'est l'orage
Boum!
Thunder and lightning, boum
Don't you know love's in bloom
All of my heart goes boum, boum
Car mon amour est plus vif que l'éclair
Plus léger qu'un oiseau, qu'une abeille
Et s'il fait boum, s'il se met en colère
Il entraîne avec lui des merveilles
Boum!
Le monde entier fait boum
Tout avec lui dit boum
Quand notre coeur fait boum-boum
I said, boum
Thunder and lightning, boum
Don't you know love's in bloom
All of my heart goes boum, boum
I said, boum
It goes boum, boum...
BROKEN (I'M SORRY)
Written by Madonna and Paul Oakenfold
CELEBRATION COMPILATION ALBUM DEMO 2009
(Don't you feel sorry, don't you feel sorry...)
Broken like a crooked smile
A little hunched over but I walked that mile
I've woken from a fuzzy dream
You never would believe the things that I have seen
CHORUS:
Don't you feel sorry for me
'Cause I'm right where the universe wants me to be
A lesson that I needed to learn
But that doesn't mean that it doesn't burn
Don't you feel sorry
Don't you feel sorry
Don't you feel sorry for me
'Cause I won't change my story
Don't take all my glory
Don't you feel sorry for me
Tied up with leather and rope
A little bit of medicine to give me hope
I'm inky like a smoking gun
It's gonna take a while to heal the damage done
CHORUS:
Don't you feel sorry for me
'Cause I'm right where the universe wants me to be
A lesson that I needed to learn (A lesson that I needed to learn)
But that doesn't mean that it doesn't burn
Don't you feel sorry
Don't you feel sorry
Don't you feel sorry for me
'Cause I won't change my story
Don't take all my glory
Don't you feel sorry for me
A lesson that I needed to learn...
No pain, no gain, no defective parts
No dirty business, no forgiveness, no broken heart
(Don't you feel sorry)
Don't you feel sorry
Don't you feel sorry
Don't you feel sorry for me
'Cause I won't change my story
Don't take all my glory
Don't you feel sorry for me
Don't you feel sorry
Don't you feel sorry
Don't you feel sorry for me
'Cause I won't change my story
Don't take all my glory
Don't you feel sorry for me...
DEAR FATHER
Written by Madonna and Andre Betts
EROTICA ALBUM DEMO 1992
Blessed I am, bless I will
I'm the one, I can still
Overcome, and embrace
All this, misery and hate
Take me by the hand, lead me down the road
Loosen my grip and lighten my load
Help me take the path less traveled by
Help me understand the reasons why
CHORUS:
Dear father, forgive me
I don't know what I've done
Dear father, please guide and protect me
I'll return when my battle is won
Dear father
Blessed you are, bless you will
You're the one, with me still
Give me strength, to undo
All the, hurting people do
Take me by the hand, lead me down the road
Loosen my grip and lighten my load
Help me take the path less traveled by
Help me understand all the reasons why
CHORUS:
Dear father, forgive me
I don't know what I've done
Dear father, please guide and protect me
I'll return when my battle is won
Without your help, dear father
Without your help, dear father
Without your help, dear father
Without your help, dear father
Without your help, dear father
Without your help, dear father
Without your help, dear father
I would be all alone
In the dark
No one to comfort me
Who listens to my heart
Take me by the hand, lead me down the road
Loosen my grip and lighten my load
Help me take the path less traveled by
Help me understand all the reasons why
CHORUS:
Dear father, forgive me
I don't know what I've done
Dear father, please guide and protect me
I'll return when my battle is won
Dear father, forgive me
I don't know what I've done
Dear father, please guide and protect me
I'll return when my battle is won
Without your help, dear father...
DEEPER AND DEEPER (Demo version)
Written by Madonna, Shep Pettibone and Tony Shimkin
EROTICA ALBUM DEMO 1992
Deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper
Sweeter and sweeter and sweeter and sweeter
CHORUS:
I can't help falling in love
I fall deeper and deeper the further I go
Kisses sent from heaven above
They get sweeter and sweeter the more that I know...
When you know the notes to sing
You can sing most anything
That's what my mama told me
Round and round and round you go
When you find love you'll always know
I let my father mold me
Daddy couldn't be all wrong
(Not gonna let you slip away, I'm gonna be there)
And my mama made me learn this song
(You're gonna bring your love to me, I'm gonna get you)
That's why
CHORUS:
I can't help falling in love
I fall deeper and deeper the further I go
Kisses sent from heaven above
They get sweeter and sweeter the more that I know
The deeper I go...
All is fair in love she said
Think with your heart, not with your head
That's what my mama told me
All the little things you do
Will end up coming back to you
I let my father mold me
(Daddy couldn't be all wrong)
Not gonna let you slip away, I'm gonna be there
(Mama made me learn this song)
You're gonna bring your love to me, I'm gonna get you
That's why
CHORUS:
I can't help falling in love
I fall deeper and deeper the further I go
Kisses sent from heaven above
They get sweeter and sweeter the more that I know
I can't help falling in love
I fall deeper and deeper the further I go
Kisses sent from heaven above
They get sweeter and sweeter the more that I know
Someone said that romance was dead
And I believed it instead of remembering
What my mama told me
Let my father mold me
Then you tried to hold me
You remind me what they said
This feeling inside
I can't explain
But my love is alive
And I'm never gonna hide it again
Daddy couldn't be all wrong
And my mama made me learn this song
That's why
CHORUS:
I can't help falling in love
I fall deeper and deeper the further I go
Kisses sent from heaven above
They get sweeter and sweeter the more that I know
Deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper
Never gonna hide it again
Sweeter and sweeter and sweeter and sweeter
Never gonna have to pretend
Deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper
Never gonna hide it again
Sweeter and sweeter and sweeter and sweeter
Never gonna have to pretend
I can't keep from falling in love
And you know it
I can't keep from falling in love
So I'll show it
You got to just let your body move to the music
Uh, you got to just let your body go with the flow
Falling in love, falling in love, falling in love
I can't keep from falling in love with you
You know there's nothing better that I'd like to do...
DEVIL PRAY
Written by Madonna, Tim Bergling, Arash Pournouri, Carl Falk, Rami Yacoub, Savan Kotecha, Dacoury Natche and Michael Tucker
REBEL HEART ALBUM DEMO 2014
Take my sins and wash them away
Teach me how to pray
I've been stranded here in the dark
Take these walls away
I've been swimming in the ocean
'Til I almost drowned
Give me something I can believe in
Teach me how to pray
And we can do drugs
And we can smoke weed
And we can drink whisky
Yeah we can get high
And we can get stoned
And we can sniff glue
And we can do E
And we can drop acid
Forever be lost with no way home
CHORUS:
Yeah we can run and we can hide
But we won't find the answers
If you go down and you'll get help along the way
But if you want to save your soul
Then we could travel altogether
And make the devil pray
Mother Mary, can't you help me
Cause I've gone astray
All the angels that were around me
Have all flown away
The ground beneath my feet's getting warmer
Lucifer is near
Holding on, but I'm getting weaker
Watch me disappear
And we can do drugs
And we can smoke weed
And we can drink whisky
Yeah we can get high
And we can get stoned
And we can sniff glue
And we can do E
And we can drop acid
Forever been lost with no way home
CHORUS:
Yeah we can run and we can hide
But we won't find the answers
If you go down and you'll get help along the way
But if you wanna save your soul
Then we could travel altogether
And make the devil pray
Oohh sing Hallelujah
Oohh save my soul
Oohh the devil's here to fool ya
Until my story's told
I said
Oohh sing Hallelujah
Oohh save my soul
Oohh the devil's here to fool ya
Until my story's told...
EACH TIME YOU BREAK MY HEART
Written by Madonna and Steve Bray
NICK KAMEN ALBUM 1986, TRUE BLUE ALBUM DEMO 1986
Each time you break my heart
Each time you break my heart
I know how it feels to be the talk of the town
I'm not gonna let you go and run around
I need to know that you'll be true to me
'Cause that's the way it's got to be
Why can't you give your promise to me
Is love so blind that you cannot see
I'm trying hard not to walk out the door
Know that I, oh, know that I can't take no more
CHORUS:
Each time you break my heart
I try to put my pride aside
Each time you break my heart
A little voice inside me cries
No matter what you do or say
I'm gonna love you, I'm gonna love you anyway
And if you're so sure that I'm not your kind
How come you can't just walk away
In the beginning we were nothing but glad
Those were the best days that we ever had
There's no compassion, all your warmth is gone
Tell me how, oh, how can I keep holding on
CHORUS:
Each time you break my heart
I try to put my pride aside
Each time you break my heart
A little voice inside me cries
I see the look in your eyes
I know you're hurting inside
Let me try
To make you love me again
I'll say that I knew you when
You were mine
You were mine
Each time, oh yeah
In the beginning we were nothing but glad
Those were the best days that we ever had
There's no compassion, all your warmth is gone
Tell me how, oh, how can I keep holding on
I see the look in your eyes
I know you're hurting inside
Let me try
To make you love me again
I'll say that I knew you when
You were mine
You were mine
CHORUS:
Each time you break my heart
I try to put my pride aside
Each time you break my heart
A little voice inside me cries
Each time you break my heart again
Well I can say I knew you when (each time)
You were mine
Break my heart
Don't break my heart
(repeat and fade)...

You give me
You give me fever
Never know how much I love you
Never know how much I care

I get a fever that's so hard to bear
Listen to me baby
Hear every word I say
No one can love you the way I do
'Cause they don't know how to love you my way
CHORUS:
You give me fever
When you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever in the morning
Fever all through the night...
Sun lights up the daytime
Moon lights up the night
My eyes light up when you call my name
'Cause I know you're gonna treat me right
Bless my soul I love you
Take this heart away
Take these arms I'll never use
And just believe in what my lips have to say
CHORUS:
You give me fever
When you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever in the morning
Fever all through the night...
Everybody's got the fever
That is something you should know
Fever isn't such a new scene
Fever started long ago
You give me fever
Fever
Fever
You give me, you give me fever
You give me... fever
CHORUS:
When you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever in the morning
Fever all through the night...
Romeo loved Juliet
Juliet she felt the same
When he put his arms around her
He said Julie baby you're my flame
Fever

Had a very mad affair
When her daddy tried to kill him
She said, daddy oh don't you dare
He gives me fever
CHORUS:
With his kisses
Fever when he holds me tight

Daddy, won't you treat him right
Fever when you kiss them
Fever if you live and learn
Fever, 'til you sizzle
What a lovely way to burn
What a lovely way to burn...

REBEL HEART ALBUM DEMO 2014
Every revolution starts inside a broken heart
Every new beginning starts when something falls apart
Can't you hear a voice inside that's calling out your name
What you risk is what you learn, nothing is in vain
CHORUS:
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Learn to live your life in the pursuit of happiness
Never take for granted, freedom is a privilege
Prison is a state of mind we build around ourselves
Take responsability, you can't blame someone else
CHORUS:
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
We all need a hero
Are you willing to fight for what you believe in
We all need a hero
Are you willing to die for what you believe in
I walk in the footsteps of giants
Remember a man who had a dream
I stay in the shadow of those who gave their lives
So we can be free
Freedom is what you do with what's been done to you
Be the change you wanna see in the world (freedom)
You cannot, you cannot blame what you see happening in the world to anybody else (freedom)
It's time that we all stand together (freedom)
One for all and all for one (freedom)
We all play the same part (freedom)
We all want to be loved (freedom)
I want to start a revolution of love
I want to start a revolution of love
Freedom...

You only see what your eyes want to see

When your heart's not open
You're so consumed with how much you get
You waste your time with hate and regret
You're broken
When your heart's not open
CHORUS:
Mmmmm, if I could melt your heart
Mmmmm, we'd never be apart
Mmmmm, give yourself to me
Mmmmm, you hold the key...
Now there's no point in placing the blame
And you should know I suffer the same
If I lose you
My heart will be broken
You undestand, don't pretend to be weak
Don't turn away, I need you to speak
If I leave you, you'll wish that you have spoken
Mmmmm, if I could melt your heart
Mmmmm, we'd never be apart
Mmmmm, give yourself to me
Mmmmm, you hold the key...

Let all the hurt inside you die
You're broken
When your heart's not open
CHORUS:
Mmmmm, if I could melt your heart
Mmmmm, we'd never be apart
Mmmmm, give yourself to me
Mmmmm, you hold to me...
Mmmmm...

GET OVER (Nick Scotti feat. Madonna) (Backing vocal by Madonna)
Written by Madonna and Stephen Bray
THE IMMACULATE COLLECTION ALBUM DEMO 1990
Yeah
CHORUS:
You get under my skin
When I'm next to you
You get over
Every little thing you do, I
I was thinking that you never tried to hurt me
Never wanted something from me, tried to warn me
But you didn't really want me but I want you
'Cause you haunt me and I felt it from the start
You're going to break my heart
So I tried to play the part
And I knew I had to choose
I've got nothing left to lose
Might as well just tell the truth
CHORUS:
You get under my skin
When I'm next to you
You get over
Every little thing you do
I can't get with it
Can't put the blame on you
'Cause you get under my skin
I can't get over you
I was hoping, I was dreaming that I'd wake up
Think about it and I found that I had made up
But my heartbeat tells me it's not true, I want you
Gotta have you, tell me why can't we just start
You want to break my heart
Now you're underneath my skin
And I feel like it's a sin
To let love walk away so fast
I'm not your first, won't be your last
CHORUS:
You get under my skin
When I'm next to you
You get over
Every little thing you do
I can't get with it
Can't put the blame on you
'Cause you get under my skin
I can't get over you
Get up, get over, get under
Oh baby you hit me like thunder
Get over, get under, get into
To love you is almost a sin to
Get up, get over, get under
Oh baby you hit me like thunder
Get over, get under, get into
To love you is almost a sin to
Start
You want to break my heart
Now you're underneath my skin
And I feel like it's a sin
To let love walk away so fast
I'm not your first, won't be your last
CHORUS:
You get under my skin
When I'm next to you
You get over
Every little thing you do
I can't get with it
Can't put the blame on you
'Cause you get under my skin
I can't get over you
Get up, get over, get under
Oh baby you hit me like thunder
Get over, get under, get into
To love you is almost a sin to
Get up, get over, get under
Oh baby you hit me like thunder
Get over, get under, get into
To love you is almost a sin to
CHORUS:
You get under my skin
When I'm next to you
You get over
Every little thing you do
I can't get with it
Can't put the blame on you

L-U-V Madonna
I see you coming and you're gonna have to change the game
Y-O-U you wanna
Would you like to try?
Give me a reason why
Give me all that you got
Maybe you'll do fine

In another place, at a different time
You can be my lucky star

Burgundy is fine
Let's drink the bottle every drop
Don't play the stupid game
Cause I'm a different kind of girl
Every record sounds the same
You've got to step into my world
CHORUS:
Give me all your love and give me your love

GOD IS LOVE
Written by Madonna
REBEL HEART ALBUM DEMO 2014
If God is love and love is God
Then why you're acting like it's not
Everyone's afraid to change
Different doesn't make it strange
Who decides what's right or wrong?
Religion shouldn't separate
Or tell us who we're supposed to hate
We can't deny the way we're made
CHORUS:
Never stop, never stop, never stop believing
In what, in what, what you believe in
Never stop, never stop, never stop believing
The truth is like the air you're breathing
Never stop, never stop, never stop believing
In what, what you, what you believe in
Never stop, never stop, never stop believing
Never stop, never stop
If God is love and love is God
No magician sitting in the clouds
Never let a set of rules
Determine what you say or do
Red's the colour we all bleed
'Cause I'll agree to disagree
It's in every Holy Book
Love your neighbour like you should
CHORUS:
Never stop, never stop, never stop believing
In what, in what, what you believe in
Never stop, never stop, never stop believing
The truth is like the air you're breathing
Never stop, never stop, never stop believing
In what, what you, what you believe in
Never stop, never stop, never stop believing
Don't you ever stop
Moses had to lead the people
Couldn't be slaves forever in Egypt
Jesus didn't die for your sins
So you could treat other people like shit
Muhammad heard Gabriel calling
Have to save the people from falling
All the prophets say the same words
God is love and love should come first
CHORUS:
Never stop, never stop, never stop believing
In what, in what, what you believe in
Never stop, never stop, never stop believing
The truth is like the air you're breathing
Never stop, never stop, never stop believing
In what, what you, what you believe in
Never stop, never stop, never stop believing
Don't you ever stop...
GONE, GONE, GONE
Written by Madonna and Rick Nowels
RAY OF LIGHT ALBUM DEMO 1998
Needing, needing
All at once goes to silence
Begging, pleading
No more emotional violence
The withdrawal into pain
The result to never need again
Is this love?
I think not
I want out
CHORUS:
This love affair is over
Gone, gone, gone
This love affair is over
Gone, gone, gone (this love affair)
It's so sad (this love affair)
What we had
Is gone, gone, gone
Bleeding, bleeding
Then comes the recognition
Anger seething
I don't need your permission
And I don't know who you are
And this thing has gone too far
Is this love?
I think not
I want out
CHORUS:
This love affair is over
Gone, gone, gone
This love affair is over
Gone, gone, gone (this love affair)
It's so sad (this love affair)
What we had
Is gone, gone, gone
You're in too deep
You cannot keep
The promises you made
Our happiness was free
The end of love
The end of the dream
Gone, gone, gone
And I don't know who you are
And this thing has gone too far
Is this love?
I think not
I want out
CHORUS:
This love affair is over
Gone, gone, gone
This love affair is over
Gone, gone, gone (this love affair)
It's so sad (this love affair)
What we had
Is gone, gone, gone
This love affair is over
Gone, gone, gone
This love affair is over
Gone, gone, gone
This love affair is over
Gone, gone, gone
This love affair is over
Gone, gone, gone...
GOODBYE TO INNOCENCE (Demo version)
Written by Madonna and Shep Pettibone
EROTICA ALBUM DEMO 1992
I don't wanna say goodbye...
There are some who believe that I owe them something
But they're wrong, I owe nothing to no one but myself
And there are some who say they created me
But only my parents will have that acclaim
I took it from there, I am to blame
CHORUS:
Say goodbye to anonymity
I have to, have to, have to say goodbye
To privacy, but most of all
To innocence, to innocence
To innocence, to innocence
My life is not a game that I play to entertain you
And if you can do it better, then you're welcome to my fame
I'm not gonna waste my time correcting myths and rumors
You believe what you wanna believe
CHORUS:
Say goodbye to anonymity
I have to, have to, have to say goodbye
To privacy, but most of all
To innocence, to innocence
To innocence, to innocence
I don't wanna say goodbye...
I don't need a reason to cry...
Kinda makes me wanna
Kinda makes me hafta
Stop and think about it
Stop and think about it
Stop and think about it
Stop and think about it
Do I want to?
I don't (getting up and down)
I don't (getting up and down)
I don't (getting down and up)
Up-up, d-d-down, up-up-up
I don't (getting up and down)
I don't (getting up and down)
I don't (getting down and up)
Up-up, d-d-down, up-up-up
Listen up!
It always comes down to this
It always comes down to this
Some people have a snake at the base of their spine
That would suck out your life, that would take all your time
They're called feeders
They're not believers but you must not fear it
They're takers
You know you better stop, stop and think about it
You know you better stop, stop and think about it
You know you better stop, stop and think about it
You know you better stop, stop and think about it
Your innocence, your innocence
Your innocence, your innocence
I don't wanna say goodbye to innocence
I don't need a reason to cry, innocence
Hold on to your innocence
Hold on (hold on, hold on), hold on to innocence
Hold on
Stop and think about it, say goodbye, think about it
Stop and think about it, say goodbye, think about it
Stop and think about it, say goodbye, think about it...
GRAFFITI HEART
Written by Madonna, Maureen McDonald, Tobias Gad and Larry Darnell Griffin
REBEL HEART ALBUM DEMO 2014
If graffiti on the wall changed anything at all
Then it would be illegal
If scars could go away
What would your body say?
Don't ever hide your feelings
Ohh don't ever try to take my freedom
Ohh your imperfections, this world needs them
What do you got?, show me your Basquiat
He didn't keep it all to himself
Even with Keith out on the street, he died fighting
So you can do it as well
CHORUS:
Love is pain and pain is art
Show me your graffiti heart
Love is pain and pain is art
Show me your graffiti heart
Ohhh, ohhh,
Ohhh, ohhh, yeah
Ohhh, ohhh,
Ohhh, ohhh, yeah
Frida showed her feelings
Painting from the ceiling
Back in the beginning
Nothing's what it seems
She paint all her dreams
She made her own reality
Ohh don't ever try to take our freedom
Ohh your imperfections, this world needs them
What do you got?, show me your Basquiat
He didn't keep it all to himself
Even with Keith out on the street, he died fighting
So you can do it as well
CHORUS:
Love is pain and pain is art
Show me your graffiti heart
Love is pain and pain is art
Show me your graffiti heart
Ohhh, ohhh,
Ohhh, ohhh, yeah
Ohhh, ohhh,
Ohhh, ohhh, yeah
If graffiti on the wall changed anything at all
Then it would be illegal...

Guilty by association
You've been canonized

HALLELUJAH (Cover by Madonna at MET Gala 2018)
Written by Leonard Cohen
Well I've heard there was a secret chord
That David played and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?
Well it goes like this:
The fourth, the fifth, the minor fall and the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
That David played and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?
Well it goes like this:
The fourth, the fifth, the minor fall and the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
CHORUS:
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah...
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah...
Well your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya
She tied you to her kitchen chair
And she broke your throne and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya
She tied you to her kitchen chair
And she broke your throne and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
CHORUS:
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah...
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah...
Maybe there's a God above
But all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya
But all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya
And it's not a cry that you hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
CHORUS:
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah...

Pontare
REBEL HEART ALBUM DEMO 2014
Cut me down the middle
Fucked me up a little
You said I was your Queen
I tried to give you everything
And now you want your freedom
You got just what you came for
A bit of fame and fortune
Now I'm no longer needed
You said it was over, wanted it to end
Then you had the nerve to say that we could still be friends
You had a few secrets I was never told
Now everyone's talking and I'm the last to know
CHORUS:
Now I'm in the middle of HeartBreakCity (HeartBreakCity)
Cause I'm in the middle of a world not pretty (world not pretty)
Your clever game got the best of me (best of me)
But you ain't gonna get the rest of me (rest of me)
Cause I'm in HeartBreakCity
Torn me into pieces
Didn't have no damn reason
I let you in my house
You helped yourself to everything
And left me with your mess
I curse the day we met
Your memory is haunting me
I wish I could forget
You said it was over, wanted it to end
Then you had the nerve to say that we could still be friends
You had a few secrets I was never told
Now everyone's talking and I'm the last to know
CHORUS:
I'm in the middle of HeartBreakCity (HeartBreakCity)
Now I'm in the middle of a world not pretty (world not pretty)
Now I'm in the middle of HeartBreakCity (HeartBreakCity)
Cause I'm in the middle ofa world not pretty (world not pretty)
Your clever game got the best of me (best of me)
But you ain't gonna get the rest of me (rest of me)
Cause I'm in HeartBreakCity
And it's not that pretty...
And it still feel shitty...

HEAVEN
Written by Madonna
REBEL HEART ALBUM DEMO 2014
My heart is a wasteland
My soul is a ghosttown
This bed is sinking sand
And we're both going down
Your words are like arrows
They're aimed at the core of all my doubt
And the battle since the day my heart fell out
Can I undo every wrong
If I promise I'll be strong?
CHORUS:
Angels cry, throw the halos from the sky
Angels fall, from heaven
Angels sigh, make the sun refuse to shine
Angels fall, from heaven
When we fall out of love (love, love, love)
When we fall out of love (love, love, love)
When we fall out of love (love, love, love)
When we fall out of love (love, love, love)
My mind is a war zone
The silence hits harder than grenades
I never meant to put a noose around your faith
Our beautiful kingdom once was a paradise we reigned
You took my crown, I broke you down
We're both to blame
Can I undo every wrong
If I promise to be strong?
CHORUS:
Angels cry, throw the halos from the sky
Angels fall, from heaven
Angels sigh, make the sun refuse to shine
Angels fall, from heaven
When we fall out of love (love, love, love)
When we fall out of love (love, love, love)
When we fall out of love (love, love, love)
When we fall out of love
(Angels cry, angels sigh, angels die, angels die)
(You're my angel, you're my angel)...

HEY YOU (Performed by Madonna at Live Earth Benefit Concert 2007)
Written by Madonna, Mirwais Ahmadzaï and Pharrell Williams
Hey You
Don't you give up
It's not so bad
There's still a chance for us
Hey You
Just be yourself
Don't be so shy
There's reasons why it's hard
CHORUS:
Keep it together
You'll make it alright
Our celebration is going on tonight
Poets and prophets would envy what we do
This could be good
Hey You
Hey You
Open your heart
It's not so strange
You've got to change this time
Hey You
Remember this
None of it's real
Including the way you feel
CHORUS:
Keep it together
We'll make it alright
Our celebration is going on tonight
Poets and prophets would envy what we do
This could be good (this could be good)
Hey You
Save your soul little sister
Save your soul little brother
Hey You
Save yourself
Don't rely on anyone else
First love yourself
Then you can love someone else
If you can change someone else
Then you have saved someone else
But you must
First love yourself
Then you can love someone else
If you can change someone else
Then you have saved someone else
But you must first
Hey You
There on the fence
You've got a choice
One day it will make sense
Hey You
First love yourself
Or if you can't
Try to love someone else
CHORUS:
Keep it together
We'll make it alright
Our celebration is going on tonight
Poets and prophets will envy what we do
This could be good (this could be good)
Hey You
First love yourself
Then you can love someone else
If you can change someone else
Then you have saved someone else
But you must
First love yourself
Then you can love someone else
If you can change someone else
Then you have saved someone else
But you must first...
Written by Madonna, Mirwais Ahmadzaï and Pharrell Williams
Hey You
Don't you give up
It's not so bad
There's still a chance for us
Hey You
Just be yourself
Don't be so shy
There's reasons why it's hard
CHORUS:
Keep it together
You'll make it alright
Our celebration is going on tonight
Poets and prophets would envy what we do
This could be good
Hey You
Hey You
Open your heart
It's not so strange
You've got to change this time
Hey You
Remember this
None of it's real
Including the way you feel
CHORUS:
Keep it together
We'll make it alright
Our celebration is going on tonight
Poets and prophets would envy what we do
This could be good (this could be good)
Hey You
Save your soul little sister

Hey You
Save yourself

HISTORY
Written by Madonna and Stuart Price
JUMP SINGLE B-SIDE 2006
(Repeat history, just repeat history,...)
I looked all around the world
Nobody has it better than we do
Uh huh
One thing I don't understand
Why don't we help more people 'cause we can
Uh huh
(All around the world, all around the world,...)
CHORUS:
Why are we separated?
Defined by our greed and hatred
Why aren't we all united?
I'm so sick and tired of fighting
Why aren't we all together?
Let's end this fight forever
Why are we still divided?
I'm so sick and tired of fighting
How many tragedies will we see before we come together?
Uh huh
It's easy to forget we have a power to make things better
Uh huh
I have a dream
But dreams are not for free
We all need to change
Or just repeat history (just repeat history, just repeat history,...)
(All around the world, all around the world,...)

HOLY WATER
Written by Madonna, Martin Kierszenbaum, Natalia Kills, Mike Dean, Kanye West and Brown
REBEL HEART ALBUM DEMO 2014
I can give you everything that you want
(Bitch get off my pole, bitch get off my pole)
You can't buy this at no luxury store
(Bitch get off my pole, bitch get off my pole)
There's a place you gotta go
Before I let you take it all
It's like a drug, it should be illegal
Baby you should get down low
And drink my precious alcohol
You look so thirsty, I think you need it
CHORUS:
Kiss it better, kiss it better
Don't it taste like holy water
Make it wetter, make it wetter
Don't it taste like holy water
Kiss it better, make it wetter
Don't it taste like holy water
Kiss it better, kiss it better
I can teach you all the things you don't know
(Bitch get off my pole, bitch get off my pole)
It's rare like mink, it's something you wanna own
(Bitch get off my pole, bitch get off my pole)
There's something you gotta hit
It's sacred and immaculate
I can let you in heaven's door
I promise you it's not a sin
Find salvation deep within
We can do it here on the floor
CHORUS:
Kiss it better, kiss it better
Don't it taste like holy water
Make it wetter, make it wetter
Don't it taste like holy water
Kiss it better, make it wetter
Don't it taste like holy water
Kiss it better, kiss it better
Don't it taste like holy water, like holy water
Don't it taste like holy water
(Bless yourself and genuflect)
Don't it taste like holy water, like holy water
Don't it taste like holy water
(If you like it, please confess)
Don't it taste like holy water, like holy water
Don't it taste like holy water

Don't it taste like holy water...

HOW HIGH (Bloodshy & Avant Demo)
Written by Madonna, Christian Karlsson, Pontus Winnberg and Henrik Jonback
CONFESSIONS ON A DANCE FLOOR ALBUM DEMO 2005
How high are the stakes?
How much fortune can you make?
It's funny
I spent my whole life wanting to be talked about
I did it
Just about everything to see my name in lights
Was it all worth it?
And how did I earn it?
Nobody's perfect
I guess I deserve it
CHORUS:
How high are the stakes?
How much fortune can you make?
Nothing lasts forever
Does this get any better?
Should I carry on?
Will it matter when I'm gone?
Does it make a difference?
Will any of this matter?
It's funny
How everybody mentions my name
They're never very nice
I took it
Just about everything except my own advice
Was it all worth it?
And how did I earn it?
Nobody's perfect
I guess I deserve it
CHORUS:
How high are the stakes?

HUNG UP (Demo version)
Written by Madonna, Stuart Price, B. Anderson and B. Ulvaeus
CONFESSIONS ON A DANCE FLOOR ALBUM DEMO 2005
Time goes by so slowly
Time goes by so slowly
Time goes by so slowly
Time goes by so slowly
CHORUS:
Every little thing that you say or do
I'm hung up
I'm hung up on you
Waiting for your call
Baby night and day
I'm fed up
I'm tired of waiting on you
Time goes by so slowly for those who wait
No time to hesitate
Those who run seem to have all the fun
I'm caught up
I don't know what to do
Time goes by so slowly
Time goes by so slowly
Time goes by so slowly
I don't know what to do
CHORUS:
Every little thing that you say or do
I'm hung up

I'm tired of waiting on you
Every little thing that you say or do
I'm hung up
I'm hung up on you
Waiting for your call
Baby night and day
I'm fed up
I'm tired of waiting on you
Ring ring ring goes the telephone
The lights are on but there's no-one home
Tick tick tock it's a quarter to two
And I'm done
I'm hanging up on you
I can't keep on waiting for you
I know that you're still hesitating
Don't cry for me
'Cause I'll find my way
You'll wake up one day
But it'll be too late
Time goes by so slowly
Time goes by so slowly
Time goes by so slowly
Time goes by so slowly
So slowly (repeat 14 times)
I don't know what to do
CHORUS:
Every little thing that you say or do
I'm hung up
I'm hung up on you
Waiting for your call
Baby night and day
I'm fed up
I'm tired of waiting on you...

I SURRENDER DEAR (Madonna & Jennifer Grey)
Written by Harry Barris, Gordon Clifford, and Bing Crosby
BLOODHOUNDS OF BROADWAY FILM SOUNDTRACK 1989
Madonna:
Pride's that splendid liar
Sworn enemy of love
Jennifer Grey:
Kept my lips from saying
Things my heart was thinking of
Madonna:
But now my pride you've humbled
I've cast it to the winds
Jennifer Grey:
Broken
Beaten
Sick at heart
Madonna & Jennifer Grey:
Our compassion begins
Madonna:
We played the game
Of stay away
But it costs more
Than I can pay
Without you I can't make my way
I surrender dear
Jennifer Grey:
I may seem proud
I may act gay
It's just a pose
I'm not that way
Cause deep down in my heart I say
I surrender dear
Madonna:
Little mean things we were doing
Must have been part of the game
Lending a spice to the wooing
Madonna & Jennifer Grey:
But I don't care who's to blame
When stars appear
When stars appear
And shadows fall
And shadows fall
Why then you'll hear
Why then you'll hear
My poor heart call
To you my love, my life, my all
I surrender dear...

Always lies in the palm of your hand
CHORUS:
But I could be your sister

I'LL BE GONE
Written by Madonna and Babyface
RAY OF LIGHT DEMO ASSEMBLY 1997
You cheated, you lied to me, you can't pretend
This thing can't go on, this has to end
There's more to lovin', there's more than just the thrill of the chase
You say you're sorry but you leave a bitter taste
CHORUS:
If you want me around, stop bringing me down
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
If you want me around, stop working it out
You're gonna want me to stay, I'll be gone...
You told me you love me but we're not even friends
This thing can't go on, this has to end
My biggest mistake is that I gave you too much
Love can never work without trust
CHORUS:
If you want me around, stop bringing me down
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
If you want me around, stop working it out
You're gonna want me to stay, I'll be gone...
Don't bring me down, I'll be gone
Written by Madonna and Dallas Austin

CONFESSIONS ON A DANCE FLOOR ALBUM DEMO 2005
Now I can tell you about success, about fame
About the rise and the fall of all the stars in the sky
Don't it make you smile?
Let it will be
Just let it be
Won't you let it be
Now I can tell you about the place I belong
You know it won't last long
And all those lights they will turn down
Let it will be
Oh let it be
Just let it be
Won't you let it be
Won't you let it be
Just let it be
Just let it be
Won't you let it be
Anyone can see?
Let it...
Now I can see things for what they really are
I guess I'm not that far
I'm at the point of no return
Just watch me burn
Let it will be
Just let it be
Oh let it be
Let it will be
Just let it be
Oh let it be
Just let it be
Let it will be
Just let it be
Oh let it be
Let it will be
Just let it be
Oh let it be
Won't you let it be

REBEL HEART ALBUM DEMO 2014
If you try and fail, get up again
Destiny will choose you in the end
If you don't make the choice
And you don't use your voice
Someone else will speak for you instead
What you want is just within your reach
But you gotto practice what you preach
You pay with sweat and tears
And overcome your fears
Never let the fire inside you leave
CHORUS:
"I can't", "Icon", two letters apart
One step away from being lost in the dark
Just shine your light like a beautiful star
Show the world who you are, who you are
Yeah, there's another part of you no one sees
There's a burning fire that's underneath
Baby don't you know you were meant to be
Born to be, meant to be
Iconic
Iconic
Ironic
Iconic
Tell me I'm no good and I'll be great
Say I have to fight and I can't wait
Standing in the wings
A butterfly that stings

I will rise above 'cause it's my fate
"I can't", "Icon", two letters apart
One step away from being lost in the dark
Just shine your light like a beautiful star
Show the world who you are, who you are

Written by Lee Hays and Peter Seeger
If I had a hammer,
I'd hammer in the morning,
I'd hammer in the evening,
All over this land,
I'd hammer out danger,
I'd hammer out a warning,
I'd hammer out love between,
My brothers and my sisters,
All over this land
If I had a bell,
I'd ring it in the morning,
I'd ring it in the evening,
All over this land,
I'd ring out danger,
I'd ring out a warning,
I'd ring out love between,
My brothers and my sisters,
All over this land.
If I had a song
I'd sing it in the morning
I'd sing it in the evening
all over this land
I'd sing out danger
I'd sing out a warning
I'd sing out love between
my brothers and my sisters
all over this land
Well, I've got a hammer

It's the hammer of justice
It's the bell of freedom
It's a song about love between my
brothers and my sisters

IF YOU FORGET ME (Poem read by Madonna)
Written by Pablo Neruda
IL POSTINO FILM SOUNDTRACK 1995
I want you to know one thing
You know how this is
If I look at the crystal moon
At the red branch of the slow autumn at my window
If I touch near the fire the impalpable ash
Or the wrinkled body of the log
Everything carries me to you
As if everything that exists
Aromas
Light
Metals
Were little boats that sail toward those isles of yours
That wait for me
Well now
If little by little you stop loving me
I shall stop loving you
Little by little
If suddenly you forget me
Do not look for me
For I shall already have forgotten you
If you think it long and mad
The wind of banners that passes through my life
And you decide to leave me at the shore of the heart
Where I have roots
Remember
That on that day
At that hour
I shall lift my arms
And my roots will set off to seek another land
But
If each day
Each hour
You feel that you are destined for me
With implacable sweetness
If each day a flower climbs up to your lips to seek me
Ahh my love
Ahh my own
In me all that fire is repeated
In me nothing is extinguished or forgotten
My love feeds on your love beloved
And as long as you live
It will be in your arms without leaving mine...

IF YOU GO AWAY (Ne Me Quitte Pas)
Written by Jacques Brel
HELLO SUCKERS! MUSICAL 2003
If you go away on this summer day
Then you might as well take the sun away
All the birds that flew in the summer sky
When our love was new and our hearts were high
When the day was young and the night was long
And the moon stood still for the night bird's song
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away
But if you stay, I'll make you a day
Like no day has been, or will be again
We'll sail the sun, we'll ride on the rain
We'll talk to the trees and worship the wind
Then if you go, I'll understand
Leave me just enough love to fill up my hand
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away
If you go away, as I know you must
There'll be nothing left in this world to trust
Just an empty room full of empty space
Like the empty look I see on your face
I'd have been the shadow of your dog
If you thought it might keep me by your side
If you go away, if you go away, please don't go away...

Turned right and to wrong
It's time to dance and turn this dark into somethin'
So let the fire burn, this music is bumpin'
We're gonna live forever, love never dies

IMAGINE (Cover by Madonna)
Written by John Lennon
RE-INVENTION TOUR 2004, I'M GOING TO TELL YOU A SECRET DOCUMENTARY FILM 2005
Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace
CHORUS:
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world
CHORUS:
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one...
Written by John Lennon
RE-INVENTION TOUR 2004, I'M GOING TO TELL YOU A SECRET DOCUMENTARY FILM 2005
Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace
CHORUS:
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world
CHORUS:
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one...
INFINITY (Early version of Give it 2 Me)
Written by Madonna and Timbaland
HARD CANDY ALBUM DEMO 2008
Anytime is not ever, now
So what are you waiting for?
Why wait for someone to show you how?
They may want it but you want it more
No boundaries, no limits
If there's excitement, then i'm in it
If it's against the law, arrest me
If you can handle it, undress me
Give me a record, I'll break it
Give me a chance to go and I'll take it
No beginning, no ending, on and on
Don't stop me now, don't need to catch my breath
I can go on and on, on and on
When the lights go down and there's no one left
I can go on and on, on and on
CHORUS:
Infinity, infinity, infinity, infinity, infinity
On and on
Infinity, infinity, infinity, infinity, infinity
On and on
They say a good thing never lasts
What goes up is gonna have to fall?
But if you care too much what people said
Then you wouldn't amount to much at all
No boundaries, no limits
If there's excitement, then i'm in it
If it's against the law, arrest me
If you can handle it, undress me
Give me a record, I'll break it
Give me a chance to go and I'll take it
No beginning, no ending, on and on
Don't stop me now, don't need to catch my breath
I can go on and on, on and on
When the lights go down and there's no one left
I can go on and on, on and on
CHORUS:
Infinity, infinity, infinity, infinity, infinity
On and on
Infinity, infinity, infinity, infinity, infinity
On and on...

IS THIS LOVE (BON D'ACCORD)
Written by Madonna
AMERICAN LIDE ALBUM DEMO 2003
How can I be sure you're telling me the truth?
In this house of games you never you show your cards
You claim madness it's become convenient
I don't wanna hear your angry words again
You hear voices taunting you to leave me
Then you're sorry you hold me in your arms
You have demons, nothing can control them
Who can blame you if you're not in charge
CHORUS:
Is this love?, I think not
I wanna get off this merry-go-round
History will repeat itself
And I won't let you take me down
Treat me like a curse then tell me I'm your saviour
I'm living with the stranger I used to know so well
Waiting for your answer is a kind of torture
Could I grow accustomed to this kind of hell?
You hear voices taunting you to leave me
Then you're sorry you hold me in your arms
You have demons, nothing can control them
Who can blame you if you're not in charge
CHORUS:
Is this life?, I think not
I wanna get off this merry-go-round
History will complete itself
And I won't let you take me down
I'd like to get to know you
You could warm up your hands on my heart
I've got so much to show you
But for now it's just, Bon D' Accord...

IT'S SO COOL (Acoustic Demo with Lola)
Written by Madonna, Mirwais Ahmadzaï and Monte Pittman
CELEBRATION COMPILATION ALBUM DEMO
CHORUS:
Lola:
It's so cool to be uncool
It's so right to be unright
It's so good to look so bad
Isn't this the best thing you ever had?
Madonna:
It's so hard to be someone
It's so hard to be unkwown
In your heart you are to blame
In your heart you play the game
Do you realize you pay the price
Do you know the cost of all your vice?
Save your soul, it's all a test
Save your soul, it's for the best
CHORUS:
Madonna:
It's so cool to be uncool
It's so right to be unright
It's so good to look so bad
Isn't this the best thing you ever had
Save your soul, little sister
Save your soul, dear little brother
You need hope, says the preacher
Learn to cope, says all my teachers
Do you really know God's intentions?
Do you ever ask what it's all for?
We need love, love and love
We need more, more and more
Prophets are telling us
We're near the end
But I am telling you
That it's all pretend
CHORUS:
Madonna & Lola:
It's so cool to be uncool
It's so right to be unright
It's so good to look so bad
Isn't this the best thing you ever had
It's so cool to be uncool
It's so right to be unright
It's so good to look so bad

JOAN OF ARC
Written by Madonna, Toby Gad, Maureen McDonald and Larry Griffin Jr.
REBEL HEART ALBUM DEMO 2014
Each time they take a photograph
I lose a part I can't get back
I wanna hide
This is the part where I detach
Each time they write a hateful word
Dragging my soul into the dirt
I wanna die
Never admitted but it hurts
CHORUS:
I don't wanna talk about it right now
Just hold me while I cry my eyes out
I'm not Joan of Arc, not yet
But I'm in the dark yeah
I can't be a superhero right now
Even hearts made out of steel can break down
You'll always be my soldier
I can depend on
Anything they did to me, said to me
Doesn't mean a thing cause you're here with me now
Even when the world turns its back on me
There could be a war but I'm not going down
One little lie can ruin my day
Words are like weapons, they betray
When I am afraid
One word of kindness it can save me
CHORUS:
I don't wanna talk about it right now
Just hold me while I cry my eyes out
I'm not Joan of Arc, not yet
But I'm in the dark yeah
I can't be a superhero right now
Even hearts made out of steel can break down
You'll always be my soldier
I can depend on
Anything they did to me, said to me
Doesn't mean a thing cause you're here with me now
Even when the world turns its back on me
There could be a war but I'm not going down
Being destructive isn't brave
They couldn't say it to my face
One day I won't care
But for the moment I'm not there
I'll just close my eyes and let you catch me now
CHORUS:
I don't wanna talk about it right now
Just hold me while I cry my eyes out
I'm not Joan of Arc, not yet

JUST A DREAM (Madonna backup vocals)
Written by Madonna and Patrick Leonard
DONNA DE LORY ALBUM 1992
CHORUS:
Was it just a dream?
Did I feel your devotion?
Dreams are never what they seem
Did we just go through the motions?
I keep your photograph by my bed to remind me
That I was part of your life
I say my prayers to the sandman
That he'll find me fast asleep
Sleep has always been kind
And in my dreams you'll always be mine
But in the morning when I wake
I remember that my heart does ache
CHORUS:
Was it just a dream?
Did I feel your devotion?
Dreams are never what they seem
Did we just go through the motions?
Was it just a dream?
Did I feel your devotion?
Dreams are never what they seem
Did we just go through the motions?
I admit that I did my bit to deceive you
But sometimes I was afraid
That this day would come
How could you just leave me all alone now
I have always been strong
So I know that I can go on
But right now I feel so dead inside
Oh sleep come to me, cause that's where I hide
CHORUS:
Was it just a dream?
Did I feel your devotion?
Dreams are never what they seem
Did we just go through the motions?
Was it just a dream?
Did I feel your devotion?
Dreams are never what they seem
Did we just go through the motions?
All that I have, all that I ask
All my dreams, they fade so fast
Don't wake me up, not today
All my dreams will fade away
And I want him, and I need him
I can't live and I'd die just to see him
Just to feel his hands on my face
Smell his skin, and his warm embrace
Cause it's all that I have
And it's fading so fast
Mmmm, mmmm
Uh, uh huh
Now I have always been strong
So I know that I can go on
But right now I feel so dead inside
Oh sleep come to me, cause that's where I hide

All my dreams, they fade so fast
Don't wake me up, not today
All my dreams will fade away
(Was it just a dream?)
And I want him, and I need him
I can't live and I'd die just to see him
Don't wake me up, not today

JUSTIFY MY LOVE (THE BEAST WITHIN MIX)
Remixed by Lenny Kravitz and Madonna
(from Revelation 1:3)
Blessed is he who reads aloud the words of the prophecy
And blessed are those who hear
And who keep what is written therein
For the time is near
(from Revelation 1:7)
He is coming with the clouds
And every eye will see him
Everyone who pierced him
And all the tribes of the earth will wail on account of him
(from Revelation 2:1-4)
Those of you who have not learned what some call the deep things of Satan
I know your works, I know your toil, and your patient endurance
And how you cannot hear evil men
But have tested those who call themselves apostles, but are not
And found them to be false
I know that you are enduring patiently and bearing out for my namesake
And you have not grown weary
But I have this against you
That you have abandoned the love you had
(from Revelation 2:9-10)
I know your tribulation and your poverty
And the slander of those who say that they are Jews, but they are not
They are a synagogue of Satan
Do not fear what you are about to suffer
Behold the devil is about to throw you into prison
Wanting, needing, waiting for you to justify my love
Hoping, praying for you to justify my love
(from Revelation 13:1-10)
And I saw a beast rising out of the sea with ten horns and seven heads
And a blasphemous name upon its head
And the beast that I saw was like a leopard
Its feet were like a bear's
And its mouth was like a lion's mouth
And to it the dragon gave his power, and his throne, and great authority
One of his heads had a mortal wound
But it seemed to have a mortal wound that was healed
And the whole earth followed the beast with wonder
Men worshipped the dragon for he had given his authority to the beast
And they worshipped the beast saying
"Who is like the beast and who can fight against the beast?"
And the beast was given a mouth uttering haughty and blasphemous words
And it was allowed to exercise authority for forty-two months
It opened its mouth to utter blasphemous words against God
It was allowed to make war on the saints and to conquer
And authority was given it over every tribe
And a people and tongue and nation
And all who dwell on earth could worship it in vain
If anyone has an ear let him hear
If anyone is to be taken captive, into captivity he will go
If anyone who slays with the sword, with the sword
Wanting, needing, waiting for you to justify my love
Hoping
(from Revelation 21:1-8)
Then, I saw a new heaven and a new earth
And I heard a great voice from the throne saying:
"Behold the dwelling of God is with men
He will dwell with them, and they shall be his people
And God himself will be with them
He will wipe away every tear from their eyes
And death shall be no more
Neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore
For these things will have passed away
To the thirsty I will give water without price
From the fountain of the water of life
He who conquers shall have this heritage
And I will be his God and he shall be my son
But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the polluted
As for the murderers, fornicators, sorcerers, idolators, and all liars
Their lot shall be in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone."
(from Revelation 22:10-13)
And he said to me, he said to me:
"Do not seal up the words of the prophecy, for the time is near
Let the evildoers still do evil, and the filthy still be filthy
And the righteous still do right, and the holy still be holy
Behold, I am coming soon
I am the alpha and the omega
The first and the last
The beginning and the end"
Amen..

(from Revelation 1:3)
Blessed is he who reads aloud the words of the prophecy
And blessed are those who hear
And who keep what is written therein
For the time is near
(from Revelation 1:7)
He is coming with the clouds
And every eye will see him
Everyone who pierced him
And all the tribes of the earth will wail on account of him
(from Revelation 2:1-4)
Those of you who have not learned what some call the deep things of Satan
I know your works, I know your toil, and your patient endurance
And how you cannot hear evil men
But have tested those who call themselves apostles, but are not
And found them to be false
I know that you are enduring patiently and bearing out for my namesake
And you have not grown weary
But I have this against you
That you have abandoned the love you had
(from Revelation 2:9-10)
I know your tribulation and your poverty
And the slander of those who say that they are Jews, but they are not
They are a synagogue of Satan
Do not fear what you are about to suffer

LA VIE EN ROSE (Cover by Madonna performed at Rebel Heart Tour 2015/16)
Written by Édith Piaf, Louiguy, Marguerite Monnot
Des yeux qui font baisser les miens
Un rire qui se perd sur sa bouche
Voilà le portrait sans retouche
De l'homme auquel j'appartiens
Quand il me prend dans ses bras
Il me parle tout bas
Je vois la vie en rose
Il me dit des mots d'amour
Des mots de tous les jours
Et ça me fait quelque chose
Il est entré dans mon cœur
Une part de bonheur
Dont je connais la cause
C'est lui pour moi
Moi pour lui dans la vie
Il me l'a dit
L'a juré pour la vie
Et dès que je l'aperçois
Alors je sens en moi
Mon cœur qui bat...

Now I can tell you about success, about fame
About the rise and the fall of all the stars in the sky
Don't it make you smile?
Let it will be
Just let it be
Won't you let it be
Now I can tell you about the place I belong
You know it won't last long
And all those lights they will turn down
Let it will be
Oh let it be
Just let it be
Won't you let it be
Won't you let it be
Just let it be
Just let it be
Won't you let it be
Anyone can see?
Let it...

I guess I'm not that far
I'm at the point of no return
Just watch me burn
Let it will be
Just let it be
Oh let it be
Let it will be
Just let it be
Oh let it be
Just let it be

LIKE A FLOWER
Written by Madonna and Rick Nowels
RAY OF LIGHT ALBUM DEMO 1998
There's a hole in my heart
No one else can fill it
There's a feeling I have
No one can replace
There's a taste in my mouth
No one else can give me
There's a song that I hear
No one can erase
Why would I want them to?
I'm still looking back at you
Why would I want them to be you?
CHORUS:
You'll always be a part of me
What you love can never let you go
You'll always be inside of me
Like a flower you grow
There's a strange melody
Sends me straight to heaven
There's a voice in my head
No one else can hear
There's a prayer that I say
Always brings me closer
To the presence of you
To always have you near
No one can take your place
I'm still looking at your face
No one can take the place of you
CHORUS:
You'll always be a part of me
What you love can never let you go
You'll always be inside of me
Like a flower you grow
Like a flower you grow
Why would I want them to?
I'm still looking back at you
Why would I want them to be you?
CHORUS:
You'll always be a part of me
What you love can never let you go
You'll always be inside of me
Like a flower you grow
You'll always be a part of me
What you love can never let you go
You'll always be inside of me

LIKE AN ANGEL PASSING THROUGH MY ROOM (Cover by Madonna)
Written by Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus
MUSIC ALBUM DEMO 2000
Long awaited darkness falls
Casting shadows on the walls
In the twilight hour I am alone
Sitting near the fireplace
Dying embers warm my face
In this peaceful solitude
All the outside world subdued
Everything comes back to me again
In the gloom
Like an angel passing through my room
Half awake and half in dreams
Seeing long forgotten scenes
So the present runs into the past
Now and then become entwined
Playing games within my mind
Like the embers as they die
Love was one prolonged good-bye
And it all comes back to me tonight
In the gloom
Like an angel passing through my room
I close my eyes
And my twilight images go by
All too soon
Like an angel passing through my room
Everything comes back to me again
In the gloom
Like an angel passing through my room
I close my eyes
And my twilight images go by
All too soon
Like an angel passing through my room...

Your love is like liquid
It fills me, it chills me
Can't hold it, control it
It runs from my touch
It slips through my fingers

Liquid love
Pouring down like rain
Liquid love

Yes, your love is like liquid
I feel it within

LITTLE GIRL
Written by Madonna and William Orbit
MUSIC ALBUM DEMO 2000
Hey little girl
When you grow up
Don't make the same mistakes I did
Learn to say "no, I've had enough"
And nothing and no one can harm you
CHORUS:
Follow your heart
And you'll be fine
Follow your dreams
And take all of the time that you need
Little girl
Never look back
Don't let your memories haunt you
Learn to be strong, all on your own
Make sure you get what you wanted
CHORUS:
Follow your heart
And you'll be fine
Follow your dreams
And take all of the time that you need
Little green
Wearing your crown
Leave all your sadness behind you
Don't waste your time suffering fools
One day Prince Charming will find you
Mmmmmmmm...

LIVING FOR LOVE
Written by Madonna, Thomas Wesley Pentz, Maureen McDonald, Toby Gad and Ariel Rechtshaid
REBEL HEART ALBUM DEMO 2014
First you love me and I let you in
Made me feel like I was born again
You empowered me, you made me strong
Built me up and I could do no wrong
I let down my guard
I fell into your arms
Forgot who I was
I didn't hear the alarms
Now I'm down on my knees
Alone in the dark
I was blind to your game
You fired a shot in my heart
Took me to heaven, let me fall down
Now that it's over, I'm gonna carry on
Lifted me up and watched me stumble
After the heartache I'm gonna carry on
CHORUS:
Living for love, living for love
Not giving up
I'm gonna carry on
Living for love, living for love
Not gonna stop
Love's gonna lift me up
Love's gonna lift me up
I could get caught up in bitterness
But I'm not dwelling on this crazy mess
I found freedom in the ugly truth
I deserve the best and it's not you
I picked up my crown
Put it back on my head
I can forgive
But I will never forget
Took me to heaven, let me fall down
Now that it's over I'm gonna carry on
Lifted me up and watched me stumble
After the heartache I'm gonna carry on
CHORUS:
Living for love, living for love
I'm not giving up
I'm gonna carry on
Living for love, living for love
Not gonna stop
Love's gonna lift me up
Love's gonna lift me up
Lord, Lord, lift me
Lord, Lord, lift me
God forgive me
I'm gonna carry on
Lord, Lord, lift me
Lord, Lord, lift me
God forgive me
Cause love's gonna lift me up
Lord, Lord, lift me
Lord, Lord, lift me
God forgive me
Cause love's gonna lift me up
Up up up up
Lord, lift me up up up up
Cause love's gonna lift me up
Cause love's gonna lift me up

Living for love, living for love
I'm not giving up

Dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah...
Dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah...
My name is Dita
I'll be your mistress tonight
I'll be your loved one darling
Turn off the light
I'll be your sorceress, your heart's magician
I'm not a witch, I'm a love technician
I'll be a guiding light in your darkest hour
I'm gonna change your life, I'm like a poison flower
Give it up, do as I say
Give it up and let me have my way
I'll give you love
I'll hit you like a truck
I'll give you love
I'll teach you how to... ooh
CHORUS:
Love hurts, love hurts
Do you remember the time?
Love hurts, love hurts
When we fell in love...
Close your eyes, don't be scared
Let's put the blindfolds on, let's see what's under there
I have a special chair, it has a special strap
And there's a special hook, it's called my special trap
Because you're bad, you're gonna get it good
Bow down to lick my boots
Because you know you should
Give it up, do as I say
Give it up and let me have my way
I'll give you love
I'll hit you like a truck
I'll give you love
I'll teach you how to... ooh
CHORUS:
Love hurts, love hurts

Love hurts, love hurts
When we fell in love...
Dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah...
Ooh, ooh,
Ooh, ooh,
Dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah...
We could use the cage
I've got a lot of rope
I'm not full of rage
I'm full of hope
This is not a crime and you're not on trial
Bend over baby, I'm gonna make you smile
I'll light the candles, 'til they're nice and soft
And when they start to drip, I'm gonna get you off
Give it up, do as I say
Give it up and let me have my way
I'll give you love
I'll hit you like a truck
I'll give you love
I'll teach you how to... ooh
CHORUS:
Love hurts, love hurts
Do you remember the time?
Love hurts, love hurts
When we fell in love

LOVE WON'T WAIT
Written by Madonna and Shep Pettibone
BEDTIME STORIES ALBUM DEMO 1994
When I first saw your face
I knew that I couldn't hesitate
You said, 'Baby, don't go too fast
If we do then it may not last.'
Time went on and I waited for you
I didn't know what else I could do
I thought that we'd always be together
You said, 'Hold on, it just gets better.'
And I believed you, I kept holding on
You think that I could never leave you
You think I'm not that strong, you know
CHORUS:
Love won't wait (love won't wait)
Forever and a day (love won't wait)
Love must live in the here and now
Don't ask me how I know (love won't wait)
So here I am with my heart on my sleeve
You said, 'Baby put your trust in me'
But I've come to the end of the line
And you have taken up all of my precious time
I need to be something special to you
Everybody is somebody's fool
I won't be a fool, no you got me all wrong
You don't know what you had til it's gone
And I believed you, I kept holding on
You think that I could never leave you
You think I'm not that strong, you know
CHORUS:
Love won't wait (love won't wait)
Forever and a day (love won't wait)
Love must live in the here and now
Don't ask me how I know (love won't wait)
Love takes time (love takes time)
And you've been taking too long
Time never waited for anyone
Don't wait too long or I'll be gone (love won't wait)
There wasn't anything that I wouldn't do
You left me on you even said, 'I love you.'
How can we go on when it's tearing us apart
Are you going to break my heart?
Cos I believed you
I kept holding on
You think that I could never leave you
You think I'm not that strong, you're wrong
(Love won't wait, love won't wait)
CHORUS:
Love won't wait (love won't wait)
Forever and a day (love won't wait)
Love must live in the here and now
Don't ask me how I know (love won't wait)
Love takes time (love takes time)
And you've been taking too long
Time never waited for anyone
Don't wait too long or I'll be gone (love won't wait)
How much longer can I wait for you
Can I keep holding on?
I've got to be strong, got to say goodbye
Love won't wait
How much longer can I wait for you
Hesitate for you baby?
I've got to be strong, got to say goodbye
Goodbye...

Time never waited for anyone
Don't wait too long or I'll be gone (love won't wait)
How much longer can I wait for you
Can I keep holding on?
I've got to be strong, got to say goodbye
Love won't wait
How much longer can I wait for you
Hesitate for you baby?
I've got to be strong, got to say goodbye
Goodbye...

MISS YOU
Written by Madonna & Mirwais Ahmadzaï
AMERICAN LIFE ALBUM DEMO 2003
Miss you most of all
When all those autumn leaves start to fall
Drifting by my window
They come up over the wall
Why does a good thing have to do end?
Can't see it happen where and when
Cycle of change can be so cruel
I've got no one to blame
I'm just a fool, you know
CHORUS:
Hold on they keep on telling me
Something's good is gonna come
Bread and gold has put its spell on me
And old man winter's gonna come
You know he keeps on blocking off the sun
Miss you most of all
When they burn those bonfires tall
Smoke and ashes fill the air and the
Harvesters are everywhere
No time to waste, let's drink the wine
Don't let the fruit rot on the vine
When the sun is big and fiery it goes, you know
That is the time I miss you the most, they say
CHORUS:
Hold on they keep on telling me
Something's good is gonna come
Bread and gold has put its spell on me
And old man winter's gonna come
You know he keeps on blocking off the sun
Cold wind is howling and there's
Dampness creeps in our bones
Seasons change, why didn't we
Come on bring that summer back to me
CHORUS:
Hold on they keep on telling me
Something's good is gonna come
Bread and gold has put its spell on me
And old man winter's gonna come
You know he keeps on blocking off the sun
Tell me why does he always have to come?...

NEVER LET YOU GO
Written by Madonna
REBEL HEART ALBUM DEMO 2014
This isn't what it seems
Feels like I'm living inside a dream
But I'm just dancing
Dancing with myself
You're from a different time
And I know that you can read my mind
But I'm still dancing
Dancing with myself
I'm not alone
I'll be dancing with this vision
I've made my decision
Won't let you go
And my favourite part is locked inside my heart
Holding you close
Because your energy is still a part of me
You know I loved you the most
CHORUS:
I'm not ashamed to say I'll never let you go
Let you go
I'll never let you go
Let you go
I'll never let you
I feel your phantom touch
It's a pleasure I need so much
Let's go dancing
Dancing with myself
Heaven's too far away
And my desire will make you stay
I'll keep on dancing
Dancing with myself
I'm not alone
I'll be dancing with this vision
I've made my decision
Won't let you go
And my favourite part is locked inside my heart
Holding you close
Because your energy is still a part of me
You know I loved you the most
CHORUS:
I'm not ashamed to say
I'll never let you go
Let you go
I'll never let you go
Let you go
I'll never let you go
Let you go
I'll never let you go
Let you go
I'll never let you go
Let you go
I'll never let you go
Let you go
I'll never let you go...
NEVER LOVE A STRANGER
Written by Babyface and Madonna.
RAY OF LIGHT DEMO ASSEMBLY 1997
Love at first sight only makes you blind
First you lose your senses
Then you drop your self-defenses in time
Head over heels is a big mistake
Suddenly you're falling
And ecstasy is calling your name
CHORUS: (Madonna & Babyface)
Never love a stranger
Never put your heart in danger
Never fall in love with someone you don't know
Love takes time to grow
Love takes time...
One goodnight kiss and it won't be long
When arms are intertwined
It's so difficult to find something wrong
One night of fun and you come undone
Anyone can hurt you
Better hold on to your virtue and run
CHORUS: (Madonna & Babyface)
Never love a stranger
Never put your heart in danger
Never fall in love with someone you don't know
Love takes time to grow
Love takes time...
We never see the forest for the trees
We always fall in love with first impressions
Words in the night seem to vanish with the light
And you wake up and you're all alone
There's no one home
CHORUS: (Madonna & Babyface)
Never love a stranger
Never put your heart in danger
Never fall in love with someone you don't know
Love takes time
Never love a stranger
Never put your heart in danger
Never fall in love with someone you don't know
Love takes time to grow
Love takes time to grow
Love takes time...to grow...
NO SUBSTITUTE FOR LOVE
Written by Madonna and Patrick Leonard
RAY OF LIGHT ALBUM DEMO 1998
I traded fame for love without a second thought
It all became a silly game, some things cannot be bought
I got exactly what I asked for, wanted it so badly
Went running, rushing back for more
I suffered fools so gladly
And now I find I changed my mind
I found a new religion
CHORUS:
Face the truth
No substitute for love
I will wait for you
No substitute for love
I travelled 'round the world, looking for a home
I found myself in crowded rooms, feeling so alone
I had so many lovers who settled for the thrill
Of basking in my spotlight
I never felt fulfilled
And now I find I changed my mind
I found a new religion
CHORUS:
Face the truth
No substitute for love
I will wait for you
No substitute for love
Face the truth
No substitute for love
I've had a change of heart
I'll make a brand new start
No famous faces, far off places, trinkets I can't buy
No handsome stranger, heady danger, drug that I can't try
No ferris wheel, no heart to steal, laughter in the dark
No one night stand, no far off land, fire that I can't spark
CHORUS:
Face the truth
No substitute for love
I will wait for you
No substitute for love
Face the truth
No substitute for love
Substitute for love
Face the truth
No substitute for love
I will wait for you
No substitute for love
Face the truth
No substitute for love
No substitute for love...

Cool I am
When I am with you
Cool I'm not
When I am lonely
I feel so sad
What I did wasn't right
I feel so bad
And I must say to you
CHORUS:
Nobody's perfect

What did you expect?
I'm doing my best...
I feel so sad
But you know I'll be true
I feel so bad
And I must say to you

NOTHING COMPARES 2 YOU/PURPLE RAIN (Cover by Madonna with Stevie Wonder performed at Prince Tribute at Billboard Music Awards 2016)
Written by Prince Rogers Nelson
Madonna:
It's been seven hours and thirteen days
Since you took your love away
I go out every night and sleep all day
Since you took your love away
Since you been gone I can do whatever I want
I can see whomever I choose
I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant
But nothing
I said nothing can take away these blues
'Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
It's been so lonely without you here
Like a bird without a song
Nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling
Tell me baby where did I go wrong
I could put my arms around every boy I see
But they'd only remind me of you
I went to the doctor guess what he told me
(Guess what he told me)
He said girl you better try to have fun no matter what you do
But he's a fool
'Cause nothing compares, nothing compares to you...
All the flowers that you planted baby
In the back yard
All died when you went away
I know that living with you baby was sometimes hard
But I'm willing to give it another try
'Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you...
Stevie Wonder:
I never meant to cause you any sorrow
Madonna:
I never meant to cause you any pain
Stevie Wonder:
I only wanted to one time to see you laughing
Madonna:
I only wanted to see you laughing
Madonna & Stevie Wonder:
In the purple rain
CHORUS:
Madonna & Stevie Wonder:
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
I only wanted to see you
Bathing in the purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
I only wanted to see you
Sailing in the purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
I only wanted to see you
Dancing in the purple rain...
NOTHING LASTS FOREVER
Written by Madonna
REBEL HEART ALBUM DEMO 2014
Come, come into my arms
Don't refuse me, the world will fall apart
If you could see, see into my eyes
You'd be with me, in this paradise
CHORUS:
Don't wanna live for tomorrow
Let's live tonight like it is the last
Can you love me like the world is ending
Hold me like it's Armageddon?
Don't stop 'cause nothing lasts forever
You can save me, never let me go
And make me indestructible
Nothing lasts forever
Take, take me to the stars
Universal love is what we are
Trust me, put your hand in mine
I'll be with you 'til the end of time
CHORUS:
Don't wanna live for tomorrow
Let's live tonight like it is the last
Can you love me like the world is ending
Hold me like it's Armageddon?
Don't stop 'cause nothing lasts forever
You can save me, never let me go
And make me indestructible
Nothing lasts forever
Can you love me like the world is ending
Hold me like it's Armageddon?
Don't stop 'cause nothing lasts forever
You can save me, never let me go
And make me indestructible
Nothing lasts forever...
OH DEAR DADDY (Cover by Madonna performed at Drowned World Tour 2001)
Written by Madonna
I went up to the local bar
To buy my daddy a big cigar
When I got home he was dead
Somebody shot him in the head
CHORUS:
Oh Dear Daddy
You're not gonna see me grieve
'Cause you brought out the worst in me
When the funeral was through
I had myself a barbecue
Daddy's bones they sure taste good
I'd 've kill 'em myself; if only I could
CHORUS:
Oh Dear Daddy
You're not gonna see me sad
'Cause everything you did was bad...
PALA TUTE
Written by Madonna, Gogol Bordello and Timbaland
HARD CANDY ALBUM DEMO 2008
The madness of love
And what we'll do for it
Two walk through the fire
And just go through with it
To cancel your doubt
And fly into the sun
To go without
And feel like you're the lucky one
The mad things we do for love
We're caught in a world of lies
I just had the strangest dream
We won't get to do this twice
CHORUS:
Lela lela lela lela pala tute
Jas kana medess medess anda latay
Lela lela lela lela pala tute
Giascanamés del balla late
The madness of love
And where we'll go for it
To travel the world
And lose control for it
To give it away
And never hesitate
Just knowing one day
It will reciprocate
The mad things we do for love
The heavens are falling through
I'm caught in the world of lie
There's nothing that I can do
CHORUS:
Lela lela lela lela pala tute
Jas kana medess medess anda latay
Lela lela lela lela pala tute

Lela lela lela lela pala tute

It's a mad mad world
All the things you make me feel
It's a mad mad world
Had a drink so I could forget
It's a mad mad world
All the noise inside of my head
It's a mad mad world
I would never change this moment
It's a mad mad world
All the things you make me feel
It's a mad mad world
Had a drink so I could forget
It's a mad mad world
All the noise inside of my head
It's a mad mad world
I would never change this moment

Written by Peter James Byrne and Rob Fisher
NAKED EYES - BURNING BRIDGES ALBUM 1983
Never had a doubt in the beginning
Never a doubt
Trusted you true in the beginning
I loved you right through
On and on we laughed like kids
At all the silly things we did
CHORUS:
You made me promises, promises
Knowing I'd believe promises, promises
You knew you'd never keep
Second time around, I'm still believing
The words that you said
You said you'd always be here
And love forever still repeats in my head
You can't finish what you start
If this is love it breaks my heart
CHORUS:
You made me promises, promises
You knew you'd never keep
Promises, promises
Why do I believe?...
Madonna:
I'll always love you
Now and forever
Don't be afraid
It's gonna be alright...
Naked Eyes:
On and on we laughed like kids
At all the silly things we did
But you can't finish what you start
If this is love it breaks my heart
CHORUS:
You made me promises, promises
You knew you'd never keep
Promises, promises
Why do I believe?
All of your promises
You knew you'd never keep
Promises, promises
Why do I believe?...
Promises

PUSH (Demo version)
Written by Madonna and Stuart Price
CONFESSIONS ON A DANCE FLOOR ALBUM DEMO 2005
You push me to go the extra mile
You push me when it's difficult to smile
You push me, a better version of myself
You push me, only you and no one else
You push me, see the other point of view
You push me when there's nothing else to do
You push me when I think I know it all
You push me when I stumble and I fall
Keep on pushin' like nobody
CHORUS:
Every race I win, every mood I'm in
Everything I do, I owe it all to you
Every move I make, every step I take
Every thing I know, it's all because you push me
Keep on pushin' like nobody
CHORUS:
Every race I win, every mood I'm in
Everything I do, I owe it all to you
Every move I make, every step I take
Every thing I do, it's all because you push me
You push me
Keep on pushin' like nobody...
CHORUS:
Every race I win (to go the extra mile)
Every mood I'm in (when it's difficult to smile)
Everything I do (a better version of myself)
I owe it all to you (only you and only you and only you)
Every move I make (see the other point of view)
Every step I take (when there's nothing else to do)
Every thing I know (when I think I know it all)
Only you and only you and only you
Every race I win (to go the extra mile)
Every mood I'm in (when it's difficult to smile)
Everything I do (a better version of myself)
I owe it all to you (only you and only you and only you)
Every move I make (see the other point of view)
Every step I take (when there's nothing else to do)
Every thing I know (when I think I know it all)
It's all because you push me
You push me...

REBEL HEART ALBUM DEMO 2014
It will never rain, never rain
If the great sky falls down, no rain, no more rain
Blood's pouring down
High alert, we watch it burn
It's a world under siege
Sirens, sirens
Everyone's whispering: the CIA, MI-6
Hide the unknown
We're at the end of days
For heaven's sake
CHORUS:
The Queen's been slain
She'll never rule again
The Queen's been slain
She'll never rule again
Your Queen's been slain
Queen's been slain
Black parade, motorcade
Destiny sings farewell, church bells
Is anyone listening
Everywhere bowed in prayer
Tears are falling
Cong down, coming down
I hear the heaven's calling
Providence, no evidence
There's no confirmation
And only silence remains
We only know one thing
CHORUS:
The Queen's been slain
She'll never rule again
The Queen's been slain
She'll never rule again
Your Queen's been slain
Queen's been slain
Who will take her place?
It's written on everyone's face
The truth is slowly dawning
I hear tomorrow calling
Some things can't be replaced
The realization of a new generation
On the eve of imitation
All gone, overthrown
CHORUS:
The Queen's been slain
She'll never rule again
The Queen's been slain
She'll never rule again
Your Queen's been slain
Queen's been slain
(May God bless you all)
(May God bless you all)
(May God bless you all)...

REVENGE
Written by Madonna and Rick Nowels
RAY OF LIGHT ALBUM DEMO 1998
There is no such thing as revenge
You will not give as good as you got
There is no such thing as an eye for an eye
If you think you're the giver, you're not
There is no such thing as regret
There is no point in placing the blame
Hate destroys the one who hate
And everyone suffers the same
CHORUS:
What you see
Is not necessarily what you get
The eyes are the window to the soul
Take your judgements
And let them go
There are only love and respect
To the known self be true
When you point the finger
There are three fingers pointed back at you
CHORUS:
What you see
Is not necessarily what you get
The eyes are the window to the soul
Take your judgements
And let them go
Let them go
Let them go
Let them go
Recognize that love is alive in everyone
Recognize that love is in us all
CHORUS:
What you see
Is not necessarily what you get
The eyes are the window to the soul
Take your judgements
And let them go
Let them go
Let them go
Let them go
What you see
Is not necessarily what you get
The eyes are the window to the soul
Take your judgements
And let them go
Let them go

REVOLUTION
Written by Madonna
REBEL HEART ALBUM DEMO 2014
I'm a poet, you're a thief
Welcome on my side, on the street
Drink my wine, freed the beast
We're all fighters
CHORUS:
In the revolution
It's calling out our names
It's a constitution
And our struggles are all the same
Who can you blame? ah!
The revolution
It's our job, we have no choice
Change the system, use your voice
Don't look back, no regrets
Strap your boots on
CHORUS:
It's a revolution
And it's calling out your names
In the constitution
Our struggles are all the same
Who can you blame? ah!
The revolution
Ain't no stopping us today
Better watch out, you're in the way
We're the children of the future
Haven't you heard?
CHORUS:
About the revolution
And it's calling out your names
In the constitution
And our struggles are all the same
Who can you blame? ah!
The revolution....uhhhhhh
Ain't no stopping us today
Better watch out, you're in the way
We're the children of the future
Haven't you heard about the revolution?...
RUN
Written by Madonna and William Orbit
MUSIC ALBUM DEMO 2000
Don't ask me to slow down
I don't wanna go down
You won't catch me lookin' back
'Cause people like me don't live like that
I got dreams and I got plans
It's not what you understand
There's no bottom and no top
'Cause people like me don't ever stop now
CHORUS:
If you wanna catch up to me
You better run as fast as you can
If you wanna live up to me
You better show me that you're the man
Am I going too fast?
Am I going too fast for you baby?
Never gonna finish last
Am I going too fast for you baby?
Mmm mmm mmm
I got dreams, I got plans
Why's it so hard to understand
There's no bottom and no top
'Cause people like me don't ever stop now
CHORUS:
If you wanna catch up to me
You better run as fast as you can
If you wanna live up to me
You better show me that you're the man
Am I going too fast?
Am I going too fast for you baby?
Never gonna finish last
Am I going too fast for you baby?
Run run run... run for your life
I said
Run run run... but you better think twice
Am I going too fast?
Am I going too fast for you baby?
Never gonna finish last
Am I going too fast for you baby?
Run run run... run for your life
I said
Run run run... but you better think twice...

SANTA BABY
Written by J. Javits and P. Springer
A VERY SPECIAL CHRISTMAS ALBUM 1987
Santa baby
Slip a sable under the tree
For me
Been an awful good girl
Santa Baby
And hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa baby
An out-of-space convertible too, light blue
I'll wait up for you dear
Santa Baby
And hurry down the chimney tonight
Think of all the fun I've missed
Think of the fella's that I haven't kissed
Next year I could be oh so good
If you'd check off my Christmas list
Boo doo pee doo
Santa honey
I want a yacht and really that's
Not a lot
I been an angel all year
Santa Baby
And hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa cutie
There's one thing I really do need
The deed
To a platinum mine
Santa Cutie
And hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa baby
And fill my stockin with a duplex
And checks
Sign your X on the line
Santa Baby
And hurry down the chimney tonight
Come and trim my Christmas tree
With some decorations bought at Tiffany's
I really do believe in you
Let's see if you believe in me
Boo doo pee doo
Santa baby
Forgot to mention one lil' thing
A ring
I don't mean a phone
Santa baby
And hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry down the chimney
Tonight...
SCHEHERAZADE (Backing vocals by Madonna)
Written by Peter Cetera, Diane Nini and Patrick Leonard
PETER CETERA - ONE MORE STORY ALBUM 1988
Peter Cetera:
He was the Sultan of Samarkand
Had a harem of dancing girls at his command
He owned all the eye could see
Something was wrong, he wasn't happy
She was the daughter of the Grand Vizier
A real beauty with the heart of gold, she was so sincere
She made a date with destiny
Marry the king, make him happy
A real beauty with the heart of gold, she was so sincere
She made a date with destiny
Marry the king, make him happy
He was enchanted on their wedding night
Just a captive under her spell
Spending a thousand and one Arabian nights
Just a captive under her spell
Spending a thousand and one Arabian nights
Madonna:
Scheherazade...
Scheherazade...
Peter Cetera:
All of his body tingled with delight
Hearing the stories she loved to tell
She was a vision, such a lovely sight
All of his body tingled with delightHearing the stories she loved to tell
She was a vision, such a lovely sight
Hearing the stories she loved to tell
She was a vision, such a lovely sight
