Crazy In Love
Active Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She was someone that you wanted
Someone that you'll never know now

And you know you won't resist
For going down
And now I'm falling
Into this world I don't know
Can't go home
Home to the ghost

Keep it all with you
You can take it but you're never gonna see
All the lies that were spoken
Fixin' me to leave
But did we waste it
I want somebody to believe
That we were falling
Into the world
We tore the wings where we belong
And you're never gonna know until she's gone

That's why I'm still calling
Calling in the name of love
Never stop calling
Calling in the name of love
That's why I'm still calling
Calling in the name of love
Never stop calling
Calling in the name of love

It took three whole years to fall apart
And another ten years to mend our hearts

Is there someone that you wanted
Is there someone that you cannot live without
And I know you won't be sensed
That you never even had a doubt

And now you're falling
Into a river of the treasons that you cannot recall
You still hold on
Onto the ghost

It's another past lover
Someone that you never understood
Even when it went sideways
Intentions were always good

Maybe it was true
I want somebody to believe
We were holding
Into the world we tore the wings where we belong
And your never gonna know until she's gone

That's why I'm still calling
Calling in the name of love
Never stop calling
Calling in the name of love
That's why I'm still calling
Calling in the name of love
Never stop calling
Calling in the name of love





It took three whole years to fall apart
And another ten years to mend our hearts

Overall Meaning

The song "Calling in the Name of Love" by Active Child is a lament about lost love and unrealized dreams, as well as a plea to hold on to hope and keep calling out for love even when it seems futile. In the first verse, the singer reminisces about a person he desired but never had, acknowledging that he is now falling into a world he doesn't know and can't go back from. He is haunted by the "ghost" of his past longing and unable to let go of the lies that led him astray. Despite the pain and confusion, he keeps calling out for love, hoping that someone will believe in him and that he can make amends for what he lost.


In the second verse, the focus shifts to the listener, who is asked if they have someone they cannot live without, someone who they may have doubted but now realize they were wrong to let go. They too are falling into a river of regrets and holding on to the ghost of their past lover, trying to make sense of what went wrong. The singer acknowledges that sometimes intentions are good but things still go sideways, and he wants to believe that the love he once had was true and worth fighting for. The chorus repeats the refrain of calling out in the name of love, never giving up even when there seems to be no hope left.


Overall, the song speaks to the human need for connection and the pain of losing something we once held dear. It also shows the transformative power of love and the importance of perseverance and forgiveness in relationships.


Line by Line Meaning

She was someone that you wanted
There was someone who captured your heart


Someone that you'll never know now
But you never got to be with her, and you never will


And you know you won't resist
Despite this, you can't help but be drawn to her


For going down
It's a slippery slope, but you're willing to take the risk


And now I'm falling
You've fallen for her, and you feel the weight of it


Into this world I don't know
You're in uncharted territory, unsure of what to do


Can't go home
You realize you can't go back to the way things were before


Home to the ghost
You're haunted by the memories of what could have been


Keep it all with you
You try to hold on to what you had


You can take it but you're never gonna see
But you can't go back, and the past is gone forever


All the lies that were spoken
You remember all the mistakes you made along the way


Fixin' me to leave
And you wish you could go back and do things differently


But did we waste it
You wonder if you squandered something precious


I want somebody to believe
You want to believe that it wasn't all for nothing


That we were falling
That love was real and powerful


Into the world
That you were part of something bigger


We tore the wings where we belong
That you found something special, but ultimately it was destroyed


And you're never gonna know until she's gone
You realize the value of what you had only after losing it


That's why I'm still calling
Despite everything, you can't let go


Calling in the name of love
Because love never truly dies


Never stop calling
And you'll never stop hoping that you can find it again


It took three whole years to fall apart
The breakup was a long, slow process


And another ten years to mend our hearts
And it took a long time to heal from the pain


Is there someone that you wanted
And now you're wondering if you'll ever find love again


Is there someone that you cannot live without
Someone who is essential to your happiness


And I know you won't be sensed
Despite the risk, you can't help but hope for love


That you never even had a doubt
That true love is possible and worth fighting for


And now you're falling
You're taking the plunge again, despite the risks


Into a river of the treasons that you cannot recall
You're diving into love, despite the pain of past relationships


You still hold on
But you're still hoping for a happy ending


Onto the ghost
Haunted by what you've lost and what could have been


It's another past lover
Another chance at love, another lesson learned


Someone that you never understood
But you're willing to try to get it right this time


Even when it went sideways
Even when things were tough


Intentions were always good
Knowing that love is worth the effort


Maybe it was true
Believing that love can conquer all


We were holding
Knowing that it's worth fighting for


Into the world we tore the wings where we belong
That love can give us wings, but it's not always easy to keep them


And your never gonna know until she's gone
Sometimes we don't realize what we have until it's gone


That's why I'm still calling
Love is worth fighting for, even when it's difficult


Calling in the name of love
Because love is powerful and transformative


Never stop calling
And love is always worth pursuing, even when it's difficult


Calling in the name of love
Because you never know when love might answer


It took three whole years to fall apart
Love is fragile and can be lost in an instant


And another ten years to mend our hearts
But the human spirit can heal and love again

Trombone part necessity: move the trombone from left to right each whole note, makes things so fun

That was the 1st song I played on the Portuguese Guitar. I had this idea of a version for Combined Choir, Band, & Strings.
