Crazy To Love You

I had to go crazy to love you 

Had to go down to the pit 

Had to do time in the tower 

began my crazy to quit

I had to go crazy to love you 

You who were never the one 

Whom I chased through the Souvenir heartache 

My braids and my 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 me 

Deeper than saying goodbye


I 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 

I've been saved by a blessed 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 me 

There are deeper any goodbye

I had to go crazy to love you 

You who were never the one 

Whom I chased through the Souvenir heartache 

My braids and my blouse all undone
