| Had to go crazy to love you
|
| Had to go down to the pit
|
| Had to do time in the tower
|
| Begging my crazy to quit
|
| Had to go crazy to love you
|
| You who were never the one
|
| Whom I chased through the souvenir heartache
|
| Her braids and her blouse all undone
|
| Sometimes I’d head for the highway
|
| I’m old and the mirrors don’t lie
|
| But crazy has places to hide in
|
| Deeper than saying goodbye
|
| Had to go crazy to love you
|
| Had to let everything fall
|
| Had to be people I hated
|
| Had to be no one at all
|
| I’m tired of choosing desire
|
| Been saved by a sweet fatigue
|
| The gates of commitment unwired
|
| And nobody trying to leave
|
| Sometimes I’d head for the highway
|
| I’m old and the mirrors don’t lie
|
| But crazy has places to hide in
|
| Deeper than saying goodbye
|
| Had to go crazy to love you
|
| You who were never the one
|
| Whom I chased through the souvenir heartache
|
| Her braids and her blouse all undone |
