Jump
Madonna攀 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There's only so much you can learn in one place
The more that I wait, the more time that I waste

I haven't got much time to waste, it's time to make my way
I'm not afraid I'll face, but I'm afraid to stay
I'm going down my own road and I can make it alone
All work and no fighting, I'll find a place of my own
Are you ready to jump?
Get ready to jump
Don't ever look back, oh baby,
Yes, I'm ready to jump
Just take my hands
Get ready to jump

We learned our lesson from the start, my sisters and me
The only thing you can depend on is your family
And life's gonna drop you down like the limbs of a tree
It sways and it swings and it bends until it makes you see

Are you ready to jump?
Get ready to jump
Don't ever look back, oh baby
Yes, I'm ready to jump
Just take my hands
Get ready to, are you ready?

There's only so much you can learn in one place
The more that you wait, the more time that you waste

All work and no fighting, I'll find a place of my own
It sways and it swings and it bends until you make it your own

I can make alone
I can make alone
I can make alone
I can make alone
I can make alone
I can make alone
I can make alone

Are you ready to jump?
Get ready to jump
Don't ever look back, oh baby
Yes, I'm ready to jump
Just take my hands
Get ready to jump

Are you ready to jump?
Get ready to jump
Don't ever look back, oh baby
Yes, I'm ready to jump




Just take my hands
Get ready to, are you ready?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Madonna's song "Jump" talk about the fear of staying in one place for too long and the desire to take a risk and jump into a new adventure. Madonna explains that there is only so much you can learn in one place and the more you wait the more time you waste in life. She says she hasn't got much time to waste and it's time to make her way. Madonna is not afraid to face the unknown but she is afraid to stay in one place for too long. She wants to go down her own road and make it alone. She doesn't want to waste her time in fighting and all work; she wants to find a place of her own.


Madonna and her sisters had learned their lesson right from the start, and that was, the only thing you can depend on in life is your family. Life drops you down like the limbs of a tree but you have to sway, swing and bend until it makes you see. Madonna asks if you are ready to jump and get ready to not look back. She wants you to take her hands and jump into the unknown with her.


The song is encouraging people to take risks and move forward towards progress. It's about not getting stuck in one place, and being afraid to face something new. Life can be unpredictable and we might fall down several times but we have to be resilient and move forward.
