[Verse 1] 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 [Pre-Chorus 1] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Pre-Chorus 2] I'm tired of choosing desire Been saved by a sweet fatigue The gates of commitment unwired And nobody trying to leave [Chorus] [Pre-Chorus 1]
