The only line I don't relate to is the very first one, "Your heart is not open", because it was mine that shut down. And he "was my fortress", as well...
I was in my early teens when this video was released. It was back in the days when I would use music to improve my English, checking the lyrics on the album booklets or on websites (which took much longer to load but had far fewer ads back then), thoroughly looking up every word I didn't understand. often translating the whole thing into my mother tongue, Spanish. If my memory's right, this song was pretty easy to translate, and I only learned two new words: yearn and bruise.
But the dictionary could only help me understand this and other songs to a certain extent. In order to fully apprehend the meaning, I yet had to live.
Madonna - The Power of Good-Bye par foxysoul
PS: never did Madonna appear as beautiful as in this video.
