Тhis used to be my playground.
This used to be my childhood dream.
This used to be the place I ran to
Whenever I wasi 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 onto the past.
Well, that'sToo much to ask.
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
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 good-bye to yesterday.
Those are words I'llNever 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.
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.
IWish you were standing here with me.
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.
The best things in life are always free, wishing you were here with me.

"This Used to Be My Playground" is a song by American singer Madonna. It is the theme for the film A League of Their Own, which starred Madonna as well as Tom Hanks, Geena Davis and Rosie O'Donnell. Though featured in the film during the credits, it is not available on the soundtrack album. It was later available on the Olympics-inspired Barcelona Gold compilation album released that summer, but in a shorter edit than any of the versions on the commercial singles. The version that appeared in A League of Their Own featured an additional minute of new verses and was 6:57 minutes long. It has only appeared on the commercial movie releases. The original commercial short version would later be featured on Madonna's 1995 ballads compilation, Something to Remember. The song was written and produced by Madonna and Shep Pettibone, and recorded prior to final sessions for her 1992 studio album Erotica.
Released in the summer of 1992, the single was a worldwide hit. It spent one week at number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, becoming Madonna's tenth chart-topping single, breaking her tie with Whitney Houston to become the female artist with the most number one singles at that time. It entered the charts in the UK top five, peaking at number three for two weeks, and was another top five hit for Madonna in numerous other markets. The song earned Madonna a Golden Globe Award nomination for Best Original Song. Even though the song was commercially successful, Madonna has never performed it in any of her
concerts, neither included it in her greatest hits albums, GHV2 (2001) and Celebration (2009).

Music video
The accompanying music video, directed by Alek Keshishian, was filmed in June 1992 at Raleigh Studios in Hollywood, California and Malibu Beach and was premiered on MTV on June 30, 1992, a day before the release of A League of Their Own. It shows a young man viewing a photo album, as Madonna sings in different settings from within the various pictures inside the album. Scenes from A League of Their Own also appear on the album during the song's instrumental break. As the video ends, the viewer having reached the end of the album, then scrolls backwards through the previous photo album pages. The video was commercially released in 2004 as a bonus feature on the 2-disc special edition DVD of the film.
The video has been compared to Boy George's video for his 1987 single, "To Be Reborn", released less than five years before "This Used to Be My Playground", in which the singer also appears on pages of a photo album, performing his song. Similarities have been noticed on numerous internet blogs, some claiming that Madonna had copied George's idea.
Boy George himself stated in his autobiography that he was "furious" after watching Madonna's video and renamed it "This Used to Be My Video".
