I Go Crazy
Davis Paul Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Guess you'll be glad to know
That I've learned how to laugh and smile
Getting over you was slow
They say old lovers can be good friends
But I never thought I'd really see you,
I'd really see you again
I go crazy
When I look in your eyes I still go crazy
No my heart just can't hide that old feelin' inside
Way deep down inside
Oh baby, you know when I look in your eyes I go crazy
You say he satisfies your mind
Tells you all of his dreams
I know how much that means to you
I realize that I was blind
Just when I thought I was over you
I see your face and it just ain't true
No it just ain't true
I go crazy
When I look in your eyes I still go crazy
That old flame comes alive, it starts burning inside
Way deep down inside
Oh baby, you know when I look in your eyes I go crazy
Oooh, oh ooh, oh
I go crazy
You know when I look in your eyes I go crazy
No my heart just can't hide that old feelin' inside
Way deep down inside
I go crazy
The lyrics of Davis Paul's song "I Go Crazy" tells the story of a person who has just met an ex-lover after a long time. The singer explains that they have learned to move on and have found joy in laughter and smiling. However, upon seeing their former love, they realize that they have never really gotten over them. The singer admits that they still feel intensely for their ex and can't help but feel like they are going crazy when they look into their eyes. The singer acknowledges that their ex has moved on and found a new partner who can satisfy them in ways they could not. However, their feelings refuse to subside, and they cannot ignore the strong connection they had with their ex.
The first verse of the song signifies that the singer has gone through the healing process and feels like they have finally moved on from their previous relationship. However, seeing their ex again suddenly reignites their dormant feelings for them. The second verse then acknowledges that their ex has found happiness with someone else, and the singer thinks he has missed his chance for something that could have been great. The chorus of the song is a confession that the singer is still in love with his ex and cannot hide his feelings for them.
Overall, the song is a poignant confession of hidden emotions that people tend to lock away after breakups. The lyrics capture the universal feeling of seeing someone that we used to love and how the past can come back to haunt us, sometimes making us feel like we are going crazy.
