Madonna – In This Life Lyrics  Share

From Madonna's album: Erotica

Sitting on a park bench
Thinking about a friend of mine
He was only 23
Gone before he had his time
It came without a warning
Didn^,t want his friends to see him cry
He knew the day was dawning
And I didn^,t have a chance to say goodbye

Chorus:

In this life I loved you most of all
What for?
^,Cause now you^,re gone and I have to ask myself
What for?

What for?
Driving down the boulevard
Thinking about a man I knew
He was like a father to me
Nothing in the world that he wouldn^,t do
Taught me to respect myself
Said that we^,re all made of flesh and blood
Why should he be treated differently
Shouldn^,t matter who you choose to love

(chorus)

Intermediate:

People pass by and I wonder who^,s next
Who determines, who knows best
Is there a lesson I^,m supposed to learn in this case
Ignorance is not bliss

(chorus)
(intermediate)

Have you ever watched your best friend die [what for]
Have you ever watched a grown man cry [what for]
Some say that life isn^,t fair [what for]
I say that people just don^,t care [what for]
They^,d rather turn the other way [what for]
And wait for this thing to go away [what for]
Why do we have to pretend [what for]
Some day I pray it will end

I hope it^,s in this life
I hope it^,s in this life time
(repeat)
