CRAZY LOVE
Ray Charles & Van Morrison Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can hear her heart beat from a thousand miles
Yeah, the heavens open every time she smiles
And when I come to her, that's where I belong
Yeah, and I run into her like a river's song

She give me love, love, love, love, crazy love
She give me love, love, love, love, crazy love
She got a fine sense of humor when I'm feeling low down
Yeah, when I come to her when the sun goes down
Take away my trouble, take away my grief
Take away my heartache in the night like a thief

She give me love, love, love, love, crazy love
She give me love, love, love, love, crazy love

Yeah, and I need her in the daytime (I need her)
Yeah, and I need her in the night (I need her)
Yeah, and I want to throw my arms around her (I need her)
And kiss and hug her, kiss and hug her tight

Yeah, when I'm returning from so far away
She give me some sweet lovin', brighten up my day
Yeah, and it make me righteous, yeah, and it make me whole
Yeah, and it make me mellow down into my soul

She give me love, love, love, love, crazy love
She give me love, love, love, love, crazy love




She give me love, love, love, love, crazy love
She give me love, love, love, love, crazy love
