Masterpiece Songtext
von Madonna

If you were the Mona Lisa
You′d be hangin' in the Louvre
Everyone would come to see you
You′d be impossible to move

It seems to me
Is what you are
A rare and priceless work of art
Stay behind
Your velvet rope
But I will not renounce all hope

And I'm...
Right by your side
Like a thief in the night
I stand in front of a masterpiece
And I...
Can't tell you why
It hurts so much
To be in love with the masterpiece


′Cause after all
Nothing′s indestructible—from the moment I first saw you
All the darkness turned to white
An impressionistic paintin'
Tiny particles of light

It seems to me
Is what you′re like
The "Look but, please don't touch me" type
And honestly
It can′t be fun
To always be the chosen one

And I'm...
Right by your side
Like a thief in the night
I stand in front of a masterpiece
And I...
Can′t tell you why
It hurts so much
To be in love with a masterpiece (Masterpiece)

'Cause after all
Nothing's indestructible
Nothing′s indestructible
Nothing′s indestructible
Nothing's indestructible


And I′m...
Right by your side
Like a thief in the night
I stand in front of a masterpiece
And I...
Can't tell you why
It hurts so much
To be in love with a masterpiece

And I′m...
Right by your side
Like a thief in the night
I stand in front of a masterpiece
And I...
Can't tell you why
It hurts so much
To be in love with a masterpiece (Masterpiece)
′Cause after all
Nothing's indestructible...

'Cause after all
Nothing′s indestructible
