You're Driving Me Crazy
Rudy Vallee And Trio Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You, you're driving me crazy.
What did I do? What did I do?
My tears for you make everything hazy
Clouding the skies of blue.

How true were the friends who were near me,
to cheer me, believe me they knew
That you were the kind who would hurt me,
Desert me, when I needed you.

Yes, you, you're driving me crazy
What did I do to you.

How true were the friends who were near me,
to cheer me, believe me they knew




That you were the kind who would hurt me,
Desert me, when I needed you.
