Life is a mystery
A vida é um mistério
Everyone must stand alone
Madonna começa a música apresentando o estado de espírito que a
leva (e a nós) às entidades Deus e sexo, que são os temas da música. O
conhecimento limitado sobre a vida e o mundo nos torna solitários e
define a experiência humana.
I hear you call my name
Ouço você chamar o meu nome
And it feels like home
E parece que estou em casa
Estes dois versos introduzem a natureza ambígua da música. Não fica
claro quem está chamando o onme dela, mas, quem quer que seja,
instala um sentimento de conforto e confiança que traz a sensação de
estar em casa. A Madonna fala aqui da satisfação que as duas
entidades (Deus e o sexo) podem trazer.
Like a Prayer
Madonna
Life is a mystery
Everyone must stand alone
I hear you call my name
And it feels like home
When you call my name
It's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees
I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour
I can feel your power
Just like a prayer
You know I'll take you there
I hear your voice
It's like an angel sighing
I have no choice, I hear your voice
Feels like flying
I close my eyes
Oh, God, I think I'm falling
Out of the sky, I close my eyes
Heaven, help me
When you call my name
It's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees
I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour
I can feel your power
Just like a prayer
You know I'll take you there
Like a child
You whisper softly to me
You're in control, just like a child
Now I'm dancing
It's like a dream
No end and no beginning
You're here with me, it's like a dream
Let the choir sing
When you call my name
It's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees
I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour
I can feel your power
Just like a prayer
You know I'll take you there
When you call my name
It's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees
I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour
I can feel your power
Just like a prayer
You know I'll take you there
Life is a mystery
Everyone must stand alone
I hear you call my name
And it feels like home
Just like a prayer
Your voice can take me there
Just like a muse to me
You are a mystery
Just like a dream
You are not what you seem
Just like a prayer, no choice
Your voice can take me there
Just like a prayer, I'll take you there
It's like a dream to me
Just like a prayer, I'll take you there (I'll take you there)
It's like a dream to me (oh, yeah)
Just like a prayer, I'll take you there (I'll take you there)
It's like a dream to me (oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Just like a prayer, I'll take you there (oh, yeah)
It's like a dream to me (oh)
Just like a prayer
Your voice can take me there
Just like a muse to me
You are a mystery
Just like a dream
You are not what you seem
Just like a prayer, no choice
Your voice can take me there
Just like a prayer
Your voice can take me there
Just like a muse to me
You are a mystery
Just like a dream
You are not what you seem
Just like a prayer, no choice
Your voice can take me there
Your voice can take me there
Like a prayer
It's like a prayer
Your voice can take me there
It's like a prayer
It's like a prayer
Your voice can take me there
It's like a prayer
It's like a prayer
Your voice can take me there
It's like a prayer
It's like a prayer
Your voice can take me there
It's like a prayer
