In the fall of 1995, Madonna released You'll See, the lead-off single for Something To Remember. The song can be seen as a follow-up to Take A Bow. The single did pretty well in the charts, reaching #1 in Japan, #5 in Italy and UK and #6 in the US. It was certified Gold in the US and Japan. A Spanish version, called Veras, appeared on one of the maxi-singles.
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
You'll see
You'll see
You'll see, mmm mmm
Video
Director Michael Haussman and Madonna decided to make the video a direct sequel to Take A Bow. In that video, Madonna was mistreated by her lover, the bullfighter Emilio Munoz. This time she walks out on him, leaving him behind in despair. She's seen on the train and later on a plane, while Emilio tries to catch up with her in vain.
Madonna surprised her fans when she performed You'll See on some of the US shows during the Drowned World Tour, instead of Gone, which was part of all the European shows and the other US shows. She might have looked vulnerable, being all alone in the spotlights in the front of the stage, but she proves to be very strong, like the lyrics suggest.
Veras
Tu piensas que yo no podre vivir sin ti
Tu piensas no podra sobrevivir
Que nada me queda, si no estas junto a mi
Veras que no es asi
Tu piensas que jamas sere feliz sin ti
Que destruiste al fin mi corazon
Que no voy a descubrir la forma de volver atras
Sin ti, yo se que si
Ya lo veras
No necesito a nadie mas
Podre resistir
Voy a poder seguir
Lo hare por mi
Sera mi gloria personal
Nadie, ni tu, me la podra quitar
Veras
Acepta la verdad, no llorare por ti
Yo se que asi sera, podre salir
Voy a saltar sin red, y no voy a caer
Sera mejor sin ti
Ya lo veras
No necesito a nadie mas
Podre resistir
Voy a poder seguir
Lo hare por mi
Sera mi gloria personal
Nadie, ni tu, me la podra quitar
Veras
Veras
Veras
