Live To Tell - Madonna

I have a tale to tell.

Sometimes it gets so hard

to hide it well.

I was not ready for the fall

Too blind to see the writing on the wall.

A man can tell a thousand lies

I've learned my lesson well.

Hope I live to tell the secret I have learned

Till then it will burn inside of me.

I know where beauty lives.

I've seen it once

I know the warm she gives.

The light that you could never see.

It shines inside you can't take that from me.

A man can tell a thousand lies

I've learned my lesson well

Hope I live to tell the secret I have learned

Till then it will burn inside of me.

The truth is never far behind

you kept it hidden well.

If I live to tell the secret I knew then

Will I ever have the chance again?

If I ran away I'd never have the strength

to go very far.

How would they hear

the beating of my heart?

Will it go cold (will it go cold?)

the secret that I hide - will I grow old?

How would they hear?

When will they learn.?

How would they know?

A man can tell a thousand lies

I've learned my lesson well.

Hope I live to tell the secret I have learned

Till then it will burn inside of me.

The truth is never far behind

you kept it hidden well.

If I live to tell the secret I knew then

Will I ever have the chance again?
