across the sky
Madonna Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I have lied and been lied to
I'm no paragon of virtue
But I wanna be with you
I have never been a righteous soul
And I don't pretend I am
But I walk the line when I'm with you
Cause you make me believe I can
But we're running out of options
And we're running out of time
And I don't know if it's you or me
But it's time to speak your mind
Because I'm traveling across the sky
When you're with me, your hand in mine
Our honesty will make us fly
And we'll be traveling across sky
Across the sky (oohh)
Across the sky (oohh)
Across the sky (oohh)
Across the sky (oohh)
I'm not good at keeping quiet
And I can't keep this tied down
But it's got to count for something
That we're still hanging around
If you need an explanation for
What is false and what is true
Then I'd rather stop the world than think
That I could not be with you
But we're running out of options
And we're running out of time
And I don't know if it's you or me
But it's time to speak your mind
Because I'm traveling across the sky
When you're with me, your hand in mine
Our honesty will make us fly
And we'll be traveling across sky
Across the sky (oohh)
Across the sky (oohh)
Across the sky (oohh)
Across the sky (oohh)
Across the sky (oohh)
Traveling across the sky
Across the sky (oohh)
Traveling across the sky
Across the sky (oohh)
Traveling across the sky
Across the sky (oohh)
Traveling across the Sky
The lyrics of Madonna's song "Across The Sky" are about a couple who are facing some issues in their relationship. The singer admits that they have been deceptive in the past and have lied and been lied to, but they want to be with their partner. The singer is not a perfect person and has not always been honest, but they try to be better when they are with their partner because they make them believe they can. However, the couple is running out of options and time, and it's time to speak their minds if they want to save their relationship. The lyrics emphasize the importance of honesty and communication in a relationship, and the power of love to make people want to be better versions of themselves.
The chorus repeats the phrase "across the sky," which serves as a metaphor for the journey the couple takes through their relationship. When they are together, their honesty will make them fly and allow them to travel across the sky, indicating that their relationship will reach new heights if they communicate truthfully with each other. Overall, the song is about the ups and downs of a relationship, the struggle to be honest, and the power of love.

Never Mind
It's strange
I feel like I've known you (built it) before
And I want to understand you more
And more and more
When I'm with you i feel like a magical child
Everything strange everything wild
Waiting is the hardest thing
I tell myself that if I believe in you
In a dream of you
With all my heart and all my soul
That by sheer force of will
I will raise you from the ground
And without a sound, you'll appear
And surrender to me, to love

But we're running out of options (option)
And we're running out of time (out of time)

When you're with me, your hand in mine
Our honesty will make us fly
And we'll be travelling across the sky

It has been such a long time since I heard a good Madonna remix. Thankfully, I found this one, it is awesome.

Your lyrics and music have transcended and touched peoples hearts through generations in a way that no one else have been able to .
You have always recognised , valued and defended people humans rights by making clear that we are all equal despite of our differences. This has been reflected very precise in your lyrics, music , performances, interviews and speeches .
Fairness , love unity and connection among humanity was a priority for you to show and prove to the rest of the world . Thanks to you and people like you , the planet has become a more open place for everyone of us to live , not only in a terrenal , but in a physical, psychological and spiritual aspect .
You are without any doubt a remarkable human being , a true example to follow and a real inspiration for humanity. People are always going to remember you as the queen of the music industry for your intrinsic talent , hard work , innovation , dedication and most importantly passion for what you do, which creates that intensive and magical energy connection among human beings .
