Madonna - Mother And Father |
Madonna There was a time I was happy in my life There was a time I believed I'd live forever There was a time that I prayed to Jesus Christ There was a time I had a mother It was nice Nobody else would ever take the place of you I didn't understand, I was just a kid No one else I guess could hurt me like you did Nobody else could do the things that you could do Oh mother, why aren't you here with me I'm trying hard to dry my tears No one else saw the things that you could see Yes father, you know I'm not so free I've got to give it up Find someone to love me Find someone that I can care for I've got to let it go I've got to give it up I've got to let it go Find someone to love me Find someone that I can care for There was a time I was happy in my life There was a time that I prayed to Jesus Christ There was a time I had a mother There was a time I believed I'd live forever It was nice My mother died when I was five I cried and cried and cried all day And all I did was sit and cry Until the neighbors went away They couldn't take my loneliness I couldn't take their phoniness My father had to go to work I used to think he was a jerk I didn't know his heart was broken He became a shadow of And not another word was spoken The father I was dreaming of Another person ever I made a vow that I would never need Turned my heart into a cage A victim of a kind of rage I gotta give it up Find someone that I can care for Find someone that I can care for I've got to give it up I've got to let it go I've got to give it up Oh mother, oh father I've got to give it up I gotta give it up [repeat six times] |
