written by Madonna, William Orbit, Rod McKuen, Anita Kerr and David Collins Track 1, Time: 5:09 ------------------------- I traded fame for love Without a second thought It all became a silly a game Some things cannot be bought
I got exactly what I asked for Wanted it so badly Running, rushing back for more I suffered fools so gladly
And now I find I've changed my mind
Chorus:
The face of you My substitute for love My substitute for love Should I wait for you My substitute for love My substitute for love
I traveled 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 so happy
(chorus)
Mmmmm, ooohhh, mmmmm Famous faces, far off places Trinkets I can buy No handsome stranger, heady danger Drug that I can try No ferris wheel, no heart to steal No laughter in the dark No one-night stand, no far-off land No fire that I can spark Mmmmm, mmmmm
(chorus)
Now I find I've changed my mind This is my religion
written by Madonna and William Orbit Track 2, Time: 5:01 ------------------------- Put your head on my shoulder baby Things can't get any worse Night is getting colder Sometimes life feels like it's a curse
Bridge:
I can't carry these sins on my back Don't wanna carry any more I'm gonna carry this train off the track I'm gonna swim to the ocean floor
Chorus:
Mmmmm Crash to the other shore Mmmmm Swim to the ocean floor
Children killing children While the students rape their teachers Comets fly across the sky While the churches burn their preachers
Bridge2:
We can't carry these sins on our back Don't wanna carry any more We're gonna carry this train off the track We're gonna swim to the ocean floor
(chorus)
Let the water wash over you Wash it all over you Swim to the ocean floor
So that we can begin again Wash away all our sins Crash to the other shore
Mmmmmm
(bridge) (chorus) (bridge2)
Crash to the other shore Swim to the ocean floor Mmmmmm
written by Madonna, William Orbit, Clive Muldoon, Dave Curtis and Christine Leach Track 3, Time: 5:20 ------------------------- Verse: Zephyr in the sky at night I wonder Do my tears of mourning sink beneath the sun She's got herself a universe gone quickly For the call of thunder threatens everyone
Chorus:
And I feel like I just got home And I feel And I feel like I just got home And I feel
Faster than the speeding light she's flying Trying to remember where it all began She's got herself a little piece of heaven Waiting for the time when Earth shall be as one
(chorus)
Quicker than a ray of light Quicker than a ray of light Quicker than a ray of light
(verse)
And I feel Quicker than a ray of light Then gone for Someone else shall be there Through the endless years
She's got herself a universe She's got herself a universe She's got herself a universe
And I feel And I feel And I feel like I just got home And I feel
Quicker than a ray of light she's flying Quicker than a ray of light I'm flying
written by Madonna, William Orbit and Susannah Melvoin Track 4, Time: 4:37 ------------------------- Young velvet porcelain boy Devour me when you're with me Blue wish window seas Speak delicious fires
I'm your candy perfume girl Your candy perfume girl
Moist warm desire Fly to me
I'm your candy perfume girl Your candy perfume girl I'm your candy perfume girl Candy, candy
Rush me ghost you see Every center my home Fever steam girl Throb the oceans
Your candy perfume girl Your candy perfume girl Your candy perfume girl Candy perfume girl
Did I lie to you? Candy perfume girl Did I lie to you? Magic poison
You're a candy perfume boy A candy perfume boy You're a candy perfume boy You're candy
Candy perfume girl
The sacred nerve is magic poison It's candy, it's candy
I'm your candy perfume girl I'm your candy perfume girl Boy, girl, boy, girl, boy Candy
written by Madonna and Patrick Leonard Track 5, Time: 6:22 ------------------------- Chorus:
Do I know you from somewhere? Why do you leave me wanting more? Why do all the things I say Sound like the stupid things I've said before?
[Put your hand on my skin] [Put your hand on my skin] [Put your hand on my skin]
Kiss me, I'm dying Put your hand on my skin I close my eyes I need to make a connection I'm walking on a thin line I close my eyes I close my eyes
(chorus)
Touch me, I'm trying To see inside of your soul I've got this thing I want to make a correction I'm not like this all the time You've got this thing You've got this thing
(chorus)
Kiss me, I'm dying Put your hand on my skin I close my eyes I need to have your protection I close my eyes I close your eyes
[Kiss, kiss, kiss me]
(chorus, repeat)
Kiss me, I'm dying Touch me, I'm trying, ohhh I'm not like this all the time I'm not like this all the time
Put your hand on my skin Put your hand on my skin Put your hand on my skin
Touch me, I'm trying, ohhh Put your hand on my skin Put your hand on my skin
I'm not like this all the time I'm not like this all the time I'm not like this all the time
written by Madonna and Patrick Leonard Track 6, Time: 4:26 ------------------------- When I was very young Nothing really mattered to me But making myself happy I was the only one
Now that I am grown Everything's changed I'll never be the same Because of you
Chorus:
Nothing really matters Love is all we need Everything I give you All comes back to me
Looking at my life It's very clear to me I lived so selfishly I was the only one
I realize That nobody wins Something is ending And something begins
(chorus, repeat)
Nothing takes the past away Like the future Nothing makes the darkness go Like the light
You're shelter from the storm Give me comfort in your arms
(chorus, repeat and fade)
written by Madonna and Patrick Leonard Track 7, Time: 4:48 ------------------------- Sky fits heaven so fly it That's what the prophet said to me Child fits mother so hold your baby tight That's what my future could see
Fate fits karma so use it That's what the wise man said to me Love fits virtue so hold on to the light That's what our future will be
Chorus:
Traveling down this road Watching the signs as I go I think I'll follow the sun Isn't everyone just Traveling down their own road Watching the signs as they go I think I'll follow my heart It's a very good place to start
Traveling down my own road Watching the signs as I go Traveling down my own road And I'm watching the signs as they go
Traveling, traveling Watching the signs as I go
Hand fits giving so do it That's what the Gospel said to me Life fits living so let your judgments go That's how our future should be
(chorus)
Traveling down my own road Watching the signs as they go Traveling down my own road And I'm watching the signs as I go
Traveling, traveling Watching the signs as I go

I worship the gurus' lotus feet Awakening the happiness of the self revealed Beyond comparison, working like the jungle physician To pacify loss of consciousness from the poison of existence In the form of a man up to the shoulders Holding a conch, discus and sword Thousand headed, white I bow respectfully Peace

written by Madonna and Patrick Leonard Track 9, Time: 6:13 ------------------------- Verse:
You only see what your eyes want to see How can life be what you want it to be You're frozen 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:
Mmmmmm, if I could melt your heart Mmmmmm, we'd never be apart Mmmmmm, give yourself to me Mmmmmm, 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
Love is a bird, she needs to fly Let all the hurt inside of you die You're frozen When your heart's not open
(chorus) (verse) (chorus, repeat)
If I could melt your heart
written by Madonna and Rick Nowels Track 10, Time: 4:12 ------------------------- Your heart is not open so I must go The spell has been broken, I loved you so Freedom comes when you learn to let go Creation comes when you learn to say no
You were my lesson I had to learn I was your fortress you had to burn Pain is a warning that something's wrong I pray to God that it won't be long Do ya wanna go higher?
Chorus:
There's nothing left to try There's no place left to hide There's no greater power Than the power of good-bye
Your heart is not open so I must go The spell has been broken, I loved you so You were my lesson I had to learn I was your fortress
Chorus2:
There's nothing left to lose There's no more heart to bruise There's no greater power Than the power of good-bye
Learn to say good-bye I yearn to say good-bye
(chorus, substituting "no more places" for "no place left") (chorus2)
written by Madonna and Rick Nowels Track 11, Time: 5:23 ------------------------- To have and not to hold So hot, yet so cold My heart is in your hand And yet you never stand Close enough for me to have my way
To love but not to keep To laugh, not to weep Your eyes, they go right through And yet you never do Anything to make me want to stay
Chorus:
Like a moth to a flame Only I am to blame Ba ba da ba ba ba What can I do? Ba ba da ba ba ba I go straight to you Ba ba da ba ba ba I've been told You're to have, not to hold
To look but not to see To kiss but never be The object of your desire I'm walking on a wire And there's no one at all To break my fall
(chorus)
You're to have, not to hold You're to have, not to hold
(chorus)
You're to have, not to hold You're to have, not to hold You're to have, not to hold To break my fall
written by Madonna and Rick Nowels Track 12, Time: 5:19 ------------------------- Never forget who you are Little star Never forget how to dream Butterfly
God gave a present to me Made of flesh and bones My life, my soul You make my spirit whole
Never forget who you are Little star Shining brighter than all the stars in the sky Never forget how to dream Butterfly Never forget where you come from From love
You are a treasure to me You are my star You breathe new life Into my broken heart
Never forget who you are Little star Never forget how to dream Butterfly
May the angels protect you And sadness forget you Little star
There's no reason to weep Lay your head down to sleep Little star
May goodness surround you My love I have found you Little star
Shining bright
You breathe new life Into my broken heart
Never forget who you are (Whispered:) Little star Shining brighter than all the stars in the sky Never forget how to dream Butterfly Flying higher than all the birds in the sky
Never forget who you are Little star Never forget where you come from From love
Little star Little star (Whispered:) Little star From love
written by Madonna and William Orbit Track 13, Time: 5:32 ------------------------- I ran from my house that cannot contain me From the man that I cannot keep From my mother who haunts me, even though she's gone From my daughter that never sleeps I ran from the noise and the silence From the traffic on the streets
I ran to the treetops, I ran to the sky Out to the lake, into the rain that matted my hair And soaked my shoes and skin Hid my tears, hid my fears
I ran to the forest, I ran to the trees I ran and I ran, I was looking for me
I ran past the churches and the crooked old mailbox Past the apple orchards and the lady that never talks Up into the hills, I ran to the cemetery And held my breath, and thought about your death
I ran to the lake, up into the hills I ran and I ran, I'm looking there still And I saw the crumbling tombstones All forgotten names
I tasted the rain, I tasted my tears I cursed the angels, I tasted my fears
And the ground gave way beneath my feet And the earth took me in her arms Leaves covered my face Ants marched across my back Black sky opened up, blinding me
I ran to the forest, I ran to the trees I ran and I ran, I was looking for me I ran to the lakes and up to the hill I ran and I ran, I'm looking there still
And I smelled her burning flesh Her rotting bones Her decay
I ran and I ran I'm still running away
(from the Japanese release of the album) written by Madonna, William Orbit and Patrick Leonard Track 14, Time: 5:16 ------------------------- Breathe in, breathe out I say a little prayer How the gods above Could be so unfair
Chorus:
I know there's someone out there Waiting for me There must be someone out there There just has to be
Go on, go on Don't sit there like a fool You've graduated from A different kind of school
(chorus, repeat)
I should be glad that I'm alive It could have been much worse I might have never loved at all And never known what I am worth
How the gods above Could be so unfair
(chorus, repeat)
