I Fucked Up

Madonna · MDNA [2012]

I f*cked up, I made a mistake

Nobody does it better than myself.

I'm sorry, I'm not afraid to say

I wish I could take it back but I can't



I'm so ashamed, you're in so much pain

I blamed you when things didn't go my way

If I didn't, you'd be here

If I didn't fight back I'd have no fear

If I took another path

Things would be so different, but they're not



I could have just kept my big mouth closed

I could have just done what I was told

Maybe I should have turned silver into gold

But in front of you, I was cold



I f*cked up, I made a mistake

Nobody does it better than myself

I'm sorry, I'm not afraid to say

I wish I could take you back but I can't



I thought we had it all

You brought out the best in me

And somehow I destroyed the perfect dream

I thought we were indestructible

I never imagined we could fall

You wanna know how to make God laugh

Tell him your plans



We coulda bought a house with a swimming pool

Fill it up with Warhols, it would be so cool

Coulda gone riding stallions in the countryside

With a pack of Great Danes, kissing eye to eye

We coulda toured the world in a private jet

Run naked on the beach all soaking wet

We coulda found a mountain, seen a perfect sunrise

Written our names across the sky

We coulda gotten drunk and driven on the autobahn

We coulda got ourselves arrested in Saint Germaine

We coulda lived like crazy til' the day we die

Instead I made you cry



I f*cked up, I made a mistake

Nobody does it better than myself

I'm sorry, sorry, sorry

Je suis désolé

I wish I could take you back but I can't



I f*cked up, I made a mistake

Nobody does it better than myself.

I'm sorry, I'm not ashamed to say

I wish I could have you back,

Maybe one day, or not.
