You'll See
Written by Madonna / David W. Foster.

Released on the 1996 album The Show Must Go On.  Madonna reached No. 6 on the US Billboard with this song in 1995.

I heard that a reviewer of Shirley's opening night at The Royal Festival Hall 1998 shall have written about this song: "Several thousand people will never again be able to hear Madonna's 'You'll See' without picturing Shirley clutching her bosom and turning Madonna's wimpy ballad into something gothic and huge."

Read what Shirley Bassey said about a meeting with Madonna in an interview.


Lyrics

You think that I can't live without your love
You'll see,
You think I can't go on another day
You think I have nothing
Without you by my side
You'll see
Somehow, some way

You think that I can never laugh again
You'll see
You think that you destroyed my faith in love
You think after all you've done
I'll never find my way back home
You'll see
Somehow, someday

All by myself
I don't need anyone at all
I know I'll survive
I know I'll stay alive
All on my own
I don't need anyone this time
It will be mine
No one can take it from me
You'll see

You think that you are strong, but you are weak
You'll see
It takes more strength to cry, admit defeat
I have truth on my side
You only have deceit
You'll see
Somehow, someday

All by myself
I don't need anyone at all
I know I'll survive
I know I'll stay alive
I'll stand on my own
I won't need anyone this time
It will be mine
No one can take it from me
You'll see
Somehow, someway
You'll see
