Crazy to Love You
Decco & Alex Clare Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lately I been living on gin and adrenaline
Tryna play a game I can never win
In a part of town where they never smile, never grin
Oh, what a situation a fellas in
Staying on the move like better wind
Can't find a place for me to settle in
Don't know which direction I'm heading in
They're spending rumors but rumors ain't true
That I'd be better off without you
But my heart beats when you call me

All of my friends they tell me I'm
Letting these good times pass me by
They say I'm
Crazy to love you, crazy to love you
Feeling like time is all slow-mo
But if I run, where do I go?
I know I'm
Crazy to love you, crazy to love you

Wondering where various lovers went
Pondering the days when I was innocent
Can't trust the news or the government
Sensationalists chasing a new event
If I had you to represent, lady
Maybe then I would repent daily
I feel like you the one that's sent, baby
I can't wait until the city saves me

They're spending rumors but rumors ain't true
That I'd be better off without you
But my heart beats when you call me

All of my friends they tell me I'm
Letting these good times pass me by
They say I'm
Crazy to love you, crazy to love you
Feeling like time is all slow-mo
But if I run, where do I go?
I know I'm
Crazy to love you, crazy to love you

I come alive when the sun goes down
I'll be alright if you stay around
You're the only truth that I found
So don't you lie, don't you lie
I come alive when the sun goes down
I'll be alright if you stay around
You're the only truth that I found
So don't you lie, don't you lie

All of my friends they tell me I'm
Letting these good times pass me by
They say I'm
Crazy to love you, crazy to love you
Feeling like time is all slow-mo
But if I run, where do I go?




I know I'm
Crazy to love you, crazy to love you

Overall Meaning

In Decco & Alex Clare's song "Crazy to Love You," the lyrics delve into the singer's emotional struggle between love and self-preservation. The opening lines depict a turbulent state of mind, where the singer's coping mechanism involves drowning their sorrows in gin and relying on adrenaline to navigate through life. They engage in a game they know is futile, attempting to win when the odds are stacked against them. The part of town they find themselves in is devoid of happiness and contentment, amplifying the challenging situation they're in.


Despite the rumors being spread about how much better off they would be without their love interest, the singer's heart still quickens when they receive a call from this person. This suggests that, despite the chaos and doubt surrounding the relationship, their feelings remain strong and undeniable. The lyrics capture the conflicting emotions felt by the singer, torn between listening to their friends' advice to let go and embracing the intoxicating, albeit potentially destructive, love they have for this person.


The second verse touches on various themes, including the loss of innocence, a lack of trust in society and media, and a longing for redemption. The singer reminisces about past lovers and ponders their own naivety in the face of the complex world they live in. They express skepticism toward news and government, recognizing how sensationalism drives attention away from important matters. However, the singer believes that having their love interest by their side could bring them salvation and the possibility of daily repentance.


The chorus reinforces the conflict between friends' perspectives and the singer's unwavering feelings for their love interest. Their friends believe they're missing out on the joyous moments in life by holding onto this turbulent relationship. However, the singer acknowledges that loving someone so passionately may be deemed "crazy" by others, but they can't deny the slow-motion effect time has when they're together. The questioning of where to run if they were to walk away suggests that the love they share offers solace and stability, even in the midst of chaos.


Overall, "Crazy to Love You" explores the emotional rollercoaster of a love that defies logic, defies reason, and defies societal expectations. It captures the internal struggle faced by the singer as they navigate a tumultuous relationship, scrutinize their own choices, and balance the perspectives of their friends with the undeniable pull of their heart.


Line by Line Meaning

Lately I been living on gin and adrenaline
Recently, I've been relying on alcohol and excitement to get by


Tryna play a game I can never win
Attempting to participate in a game that I will never succeed in


In a part of town where they never smile, never grin
In a neighborhood where people rarely show happiness or joy


Oh, what a situation a fellas in
Oh, what a difficult situation a man finds himself in


Staying on the move like better wind
Constantly moving around like a strong gust of wind


Can't find a place for me to settle in
Unable to find a location where I can feel at home


Don't know which direction I'm heading in
Uncertain about the path I am taking in life


They're spending rumors but rumors ain't true
People are spreading rumors, but those rumors are not accurate


That I'd be better off without you
Claiming that I would be happier if I were not with you


But my heart beats when you call me
However, my heart races when you contact me


Feeling like time is all slow-mo
Sensing that time is moving in slow motion


But if I run, where do I go?
If I choose to escape, where will I find refuge?


I know I'm crazy to love you, crazy to love you
I am aware that it may seem irrational to love you, but I still do


Wondering where various lovers went
Thinking about where my past lovers have ended up


Pondering the days when I was innocent
Reflecting on the times when I was naive and pure


Can't trust the news or the government
Having a lack of trust in the media and the authorities


Sensationalists chasing a new event
Media outlets pursuing exciting stories for attention


If I had you to represent, lady
If I had you as my partner, to be a symbol of love, my dear


Maybe then I would repent daily
Perhaps then I would feel remorse on a daily basis


I feel like you the one that's sent, baby
I believe that you are the one who has been sent to me, my love


I can't wait until the city saves me
I eagerly anticipate the moment when the city rescues me from my troubles


I come alive when the sun goes down
I feel most alive when the sun sets and darkness falls


I'll be alright if you stay around
I will be fine as long as you remain in my life


You're the only truth that I found
You are the only real and genuine thing I have discovered


So don't you lie, don't you lie
Therefore, please do not deceive me, do not lie


All of my friends they tell me I'm
All of my friends inform me that I am


Letting these good times pass me by
Allowing these enjoyable moments to slip away from me


They say I'm crazy to love you, crazy to love you
They claim that it is foolish of me to love you, that I am mad for doing so


Feeling like time is all slow-mo
Sensing that time is moving in slow motion


But if I run, where do I go?
If I choose to escape, where will I find refuge?


I know I'm crazy to love you, crazy to love you
I am aware that it may seem irrational to love you, but I still do
