Crazy To Run
Marie Sisters Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She said, it would break her heart
To love without commitment
It would be just, too hard
She gave him an ultimatum
She said he would have to choose
Bewtween freedom and forever
And he didn't want to lose
'Cause he was crazy about her
But he was crazy to run
Wild with the horses
When he knew she was the one
He thought about trying
To leave her and live with pain
He knew the ride just wasn't worth it
But he just couldn't let go of the reins
'Cause he was crazy about her
But he was crazy to run
Wild with the horses
When he knew she was the one
But she agreed reluctantly as he stood there at the door
And when he held her as she said goodbye he just couldn't let her go
Because he was crazy about her
But he was crazy to run
Wild with the horses
When he knew she was the one
Crazy to run
The Marie Sisters' song "Crazy To Run" tells the story of a man who is torn between his love for a woman and his fear of commitment. The woman gives him an ultimatum to choose between freedom and forever, but the man is unable to make a decision. He loves her deeply but is scared of the commitment that comes with it. He knows that his desire to run wild with the horses is coming in the way of his love for her, but he cannot let go of the reins.
It is clear from the lyrics of the song that the man is struggling with his own emotions. He is aware that he is hurting the woman he loves but cannot bring himself to make a commitment. He considers leaving her and living with the pain, but he knows that it will not work. He finally agrees to be with her although reluctantly, unable to let her go.
The song highlights the complexities of relationships and the fear of commitment that many people experience. It shows how love can be both beautiful and painful at the same time. It is a powerful reminder that sometimes we need to take a leap of faith and embrace the unknown in order to find true love and happiness.
