I had to go crazy to love you â?¨
Had to go down to the pit â?¨
Had to do time in the tower â?¨

Now I'm too tired to quit
â?¨I had to go crazy to love you â?¨
You who were never the one â?¨

Whom I chased through the â?¨
Souvenir heartache â?¨
My braids and my blouse all undone

â?¨Sometimes I'd head for the highway
â?¨I'm old and the mirrors don't lie â?¨
But crazy has places to hide me â?¨


Deeper than saying goodbye
â?¨I had to go crazy to love you â?¨

Had to let everything fall
â?¨Had to be people I hated â?¨
Had to be no one at all â?¨

Tired of choosing desire
â?¨I've been saved by a blessed fatigue â?¨
The gates of commitment unwired

â?¨And nobody trying to leave â?¨
Sometimes I'd head for the highway
â?¨I'm old and the mirrors don't lie â?¨

But crazy has places to hide me â?¨
Deeper than saying goodbye
