The Test (Instrumental) – Madonna Lyrics
Shining on our skin
Shining on us
Shining on our skin
Shining on us
Shining on our skin
Shining on us
Shining on our skin
Shining on us
Little star
I tried to put you on a pedestal
You didn't ask for all the flashing lights
I didn't think of how it could disturb
Or how it hurt
I wish I knew
The pain I caused
My butterfly
Was always being watched
I know they tried to put us to the test
We're not the same, but I'm treading on your footsteps
Sometimes I think you wish I'd go away
But my shadow stays and it's okay to be yourself
I know they tried to put us to the test
You're not to blame, but you need to be free now
You made me whole when I was broken too
And I hope and pray I can do the same for you
Shining on our skin
Shining on us
Shining on our skin
Shining on us
Shining on our skin
It's shining on our skin
It's shining on us
Surrounding all around you
A hand tenderly reaching to me
You are my reason to be
Or what I want, or look like
What I wear, all the clothes on my back
And what I attract
I trace the line of what you have sewn
Keep my own design
Make it a landscape
Make it alive
I know they tried to put you to the test
I'm not so different, time is knocking on my doorstep
You show me your razor-sharp laser vision
Real brave will make you feel kind of different
I know they tried to put us to the test
I'm not the same when I'm hanging on your coattail
Sometimes I wish I could multiply you
But I know you are all I, I need
You are all I, I need
I know you feel just like a butterfly
In case I have to tread so lightly on my footsteps
I'd stay, but there is so much light in your heart
It's shining on our skin
It's shining on us
Surrounding all around you
