Madonna - This Used To Be My Playground lyrics

Chorus (first time without background vocals):

This used to be my playground [used to be]

This used to be my childhood dream

This used to be the place I ran to

Whenever I was in need

Of a friend

Why did it have to end

And why do they always say

Don`t look back

Keep your head held high

Don`t ask them why

Because life is short

And before you know

You`re feeling old

And your heart is breaking

Don`t hold on to the past

Well that`s too much to ask

(Long and movie versions only:)

(chorus)

Live and learn

Well the years they flew

And we never knew

We were foolish then

We would never tire

And that little fire

Is still alive in me

It will never go away

Can`t say goodbye to yesterday [can`t say goodbye]

(chorus)

No regrets

But I wish that you

Were here with me

Well then there`s hope yet

I can see your face

In our secret place

You`re not just a memory

Say goodbye to yesterday [the dream]

Those are words I`ll never say [I`ll never say]

This used to be my playground [used to be]

This used to be our pride and joy

This used to be the place we ran to

That no one in the world could dare destroy

(Short and movie versions only:)

This used to be our playground [used to be]

This used to be our childhood dream

This used to be the place we ran to

I wish you were standing here with me

(Movie version only:)

This used to be our playground [used to be]

This used to be our great escape

This used to be the place we ran to

This used to be our secret hiding place

This used to be our playground [used to be]

This used to be our childhood dream

This used to be the place we ran to
