Ray Of Light
Madonna · Celebration [2009]
do my tears of mourning sink beneath the sun
She's got herself a universe gone quickly
for the call of thunder, threatens everyone
Chorus:
And I feel like I just got home and I feel
And I feel like I just got home and I feel
Faster than the speeding light she's flying
trying to remember where it all began
She's got herself a little piece of heaven
waiting for the time when earth shall be as one
Chorus
Quicker than a ray of light
Quicker than a ray of light
Quicker than a ray of light
Zephyr in the sky at night I wonder
do my tears of mourning sink beneath the sun
She's got herself a universe gone quickly
for the call of thunder, threatens everyone
And I feel!
Quicker than a ray of light then gone for
someone else shall be there
through the endless years...
She's got herself a universe
She's got herself a universe
She's got herself a universe
And I feel
And I feel like I just got home
And I feel
Quicker than a ray of light she's flying
Quicker than a ray of light I'm flying
