Madonna - Oh Father Lyrics

Artist: Madonna

Album: Like A Prayer

  • Songwriters: Patrick Raymond Leonard, Madonna

It's funny that way, you can get used
To the tears and the pain
What a child will believe
You never loved me

You can't hurt me now
I got away from you
I never thought I would

You can't make me cry
You once had the power
I never felt so good about myself

Seems like yesterday
I lay down next to your boots and I prayed
For your anger to end
Oh Father, I have sinned

You can't hurt me now
I got away from you
I never thought I would

You can't make me cry
You once had the power
I never felt so good about myself

Oh Father, you never wanted to live that way
You never wanted to hurt me
Why am I running away

Oh Father, you never wanted to live that way
You never wanted to hurt me
Why am I running away

Maybe someday
When I look back I'll be able to say
You didn't mean to be cruel
Somebody hurt you too

You can't hurt me now
I got away from you
I never thought I would

You can't make me cry
You once had the power
I never felt so good

You can't hurt me now
I got away from you
I never thought I would

You can't make me cry
You once had the power
I never felt so good about myself
