CRAZY LOVE
John & Audrey Wiggins Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tonight I'm gonna break away
Just you wait and see
I'll never be imprisoned by a faded memory
Just when I think I'm over her
This broken heart will mend
The tears come down again
It happens all the time, this crazy love of mine
Wraps around my heart, refusing to unwind
Oh oh Crazy love, Ay-hi-i-i
Count the stars in a summer sky
That fall without a sound
Oh, and then pretend that you can't hear
These teardrops comin' down
It happens all the time, this crazy love of mine
Wraps around my heart, refusing to unwind
Oh oh Crazy love, Ay-hi-i-i
It happens all the time, this crazy love of mine
Wraps around my heart, refusing to unwi-i-ind
Oh oh Crazy love, Ay-hi-i-i
O-oh-oh
Oh oh Crazy love, Ay-hi-i-i
Tonight I'm gonna break away

I know this is super late, and you'll probably never see it, but Audrey is married and has two amazing children, a boy and a girl. She's an amazing mother, and she still loves singing. I'm not sure if John still performs, but I know he has written several number ones, including "Tequila Makes Her Clothes Fall Off," and continues to write today.

Coldylol I’m glad to here that John has had success writing. I liked there music back in the 90s. I even called the station and requested Has Anybody Seen Amy once. I did not know he wrote those songs but I’m sure that as hard as they worked that they both deserved some success in the the business.
