Nothing Really Matters Lyrics
Nothing really mattered to me
But making myself happy
I was the only one
Now that I am grown
Everything's changed
I'll never be the same
Because of you
Nothing really matters
Love is all we need
Everything I give you
All comes back to me
Looking at my life
It's very clear to me
I lived so selfishly
I was the only one
I realize
That nobody wins
Something is ending
And something begins
Nothing really matters
Love is all we need
Everything I give you
All comes back to
Nothing really matters
Love is all we need
Everything I give you
All comes back to me
Nothing takes the past away
Like the future
Nothing makes the darkness go
Like the light
You're shelter from the storm
Give me comfort in your arms
Nothing really matters
Love is all we need
Everything I give you
All comes back to me

This is a very true song... Nothing really matters, but the love, we gave to each other. And this not only in relational life. It all comes back to us, so be respectful to everyone you met. This is what this song means to me, even this is not the real message of this song. ;)

She's hatsumomo from Memoirs of a geisha, and she's realizing that all of that bad karma she's been sending out is coming back to her. She realizes that she needs to move on because it doesn't matter that she's not the 'only one' anymore. What she really needs in life is love, and that she shouldn't waste her time on screwing with people's lives anymore for her own sake because she's still not happy.

I think it is all about being a mother, when she was young, no one else was important, but Now she has a daughter. with who all the love she gives her, comes back, and she knows that now she isn't really important at all compared to her daughter

Can't believe no one has commented on this song :O ! Anyway I think Madonna here is letting go of her "material girl" like needs, she realises that nothing in the world matters because its not eternal, the only thing that is eternal is love.

hehe..well i love this song. i really like Madonna's songs. they're always amazing--the sound and the lyrics. she's one of the best artists out there. with some of her songs they juss hit me inside sumwhere and juss connect with my soul and lures me in her music .. i love her songs. shes awesome!

i really love this song. it juss sounds beautiful, of course it's madonna. but ne ways it is a possibility that this may be about her child. basically shes changed her old ways and now that shes grown up and now a mom. well its juss a possibility or it could be about a person. but most of the lines point more to that direction it seems. maybe.

all about the beginning of something and that she's not looking back anymore. I liked the catchy beat in the chorus.

Agree with the rest of the bloggers because What Madonna Really is Crying About in Nothing Really Matters is Love Itself. For Madonna, Love is the only aspect that matters In Our American Lives because Lady Madonna is Profusely Crying in this beautiful song. Her Tears Are Falling because her four artful students by the names of Lola, Rocco, David and Mercy have all impacted and changed her life. Being a mother is so important to Miss Ciccone-She never had a mother to love. Madonna is Very Happy but she is Extremely Sad because she can't quite really explain it-it's just there for her. That is why Madonna is Love. Between Smiles and Tears, Madonna is Reveling in the grace and beauty of her Ray of Light in her American Life. Madonna is Love!
