Lyrics

While the symphony played, I was starting to fade 'til I woke to a cymbal crash
I turned to my right, you were gone, that's all right, these Platonic things are a burn
I walked out on the street while the big city lights tried to sell me on a way of life that I was already living
Well, a limousine longer than the Golden Gate Bridge pulled up alongside me at the curb
All the glass was blacked out so I knew there was somebody very important in there
Then the door opened up and a blonde in the shadows said
"Get inside."
And of course, I got inside
Madonna, is that really you?
Madonna, whatcha gonna do?
Feelings only you can have
Never in the photograph
Feelings only you can have
Well, she took me back to her penthouse and showed me all of her platinum records, and of course there were a lot
Then we sat on the sofa and she turned on a classical station, but the reception was poor
And we sat there and talked and talked a little more, and one thing led to another as they often do in these situations
All the stars are shining tonight for me
All the stars are shining tonight glory be
Madonna, is that really you?
Madonna, whatcha gonna do?
Feelings only you can have
Never in the photograph
Feelings only you can have
Madonna, is that really you?
Madonna, whatcha gonna do?
Feelings only you can have
Never in the photograph
Feelings only you can have
Madonna
In the morning, she fixed me a continental breakfast and then she said, "Well, goodbye."
And I said, "Can I see you again?", and she said, "No.", and I said, "Well, goodbye."
And I never told anyone about this 'cause after all, it's none of their business what she or I did
Madonna, is that really you?
Madonna, whatcha gonna do?
Feelings only you can have
Never in the photograph
Feelings only you can have
Madonna, is that really you?
Madonna, whatcha gonna do?
Feelings only you can have
Never in the photograph
Feelings only you can have
Madonna
Madonna
Madonna
Madonna
Madonna, is that really you?
