mother and father (live 2004) - madonna lyrics

[intro]
are you having a good time?
me too

[verse 1]
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

[pre-chorus]
oh mother, why aren’t you here with me?
no one else saw the things that you could see
i’m trying hard to dry my tears
yes father, you know i’m not so free

[verse 2]
n0body else would ever take the place of you
n0body else could do the things that you could do
no one else i guess could hurt me like you did
i didn’t understand, i was just a kid

[pre-chorus]
oh mother, why aren’t you here with me?
no one else saw the things that you could see
i’m trying hard to dry my tears
yes father, you know i’m not so free

[chorus]
i’ve got to give it up
find someone to love me
i’ve got to let it go
find someone that i can care for
i’ve got to give it up
find someone to love me
i’ve got to let it go
find someone that i can care for

[verse 3]
my mother died when i was five
and all i did was sit and cry
i cried and cried and cried all day
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
not another word was spoken
he became a shadow of
the father i was dreaming of
i made a vow that i would never need
another person ever
turned my heart into a cage
a victim of a kind of rage

[interlude]
i got to save my baby
because he makes me cry
i got to make him happy
i got to teach him how to fly
i got to take him higher
way up like a bird in the sky
i got to calm him down now
i got to save his life

[chorus]
i’ve got to give it up
i’ve got to give it up
i’ve got to give it up
find somebody to love me
i’ve got to let it go
find someone that i can care for
i’ve got to give it up
find somebody to love me
find someone that i can care for

[outro]
i’ve got to give it up
i’ve got to give it up
i’ve got to give it up
i’ve got to give it up
i’ve got to let it go
i’ve got to give it up
i’ve got to let it go
oh mother
oh father
i’ve got to give it up
oh mother
oh father
i’ve got to give it up
