Crazy On You
The Heart Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If we still have time, we might still get by
Every time I think about it, I want to cry
With bombs and the devil, and the kids keep comin'
No way to breathe easy, no time to be young

But I tell myself that I was doin' all right
There's nothin' left to do at night
But go crazy on you
Crazy on you
Let me go crazy, crazy on you, oh

My love is the evenin' breeze touchin' your skin
The gentle, sweet singin' of leaves in the wind
The whisper that calls after you in the night
And kisses your ear in the early moonlight
And you don't need to wonder, you're doing fine
My love, the pleasure's mine

Let me go crazy on you
Crazy on you
Let me go crazy, crazy on you, oh

Wild man's world is cryin' in pain
What you gonna do when everybody's insane?
So afraid of one who's so afraid of you
What you gonna do? Oh

(Ah ah ah ah)

Ooh crazy on you
Crazy on you
Let me go crazy, crazy on you

I was a willow last night in a dream
I bent down over a clear running stream
Sang you the song that I heard up above
And you kept me alive with your sweet flowing love

Crazy
Yeah, crazy on you
Let me go crazy, crazy on you, oh
Crazy on you
Crazy on you
Let me go crazy, crazy on you, yeah

(Ah ah ah ah)

Crazy on you




Crazy on you
Let me go crazy, crazy on you, oh

We may still have time
We might still get by
Every time I think about it I wanna cry
With bombs and the devil
And the kids keep coming
No way to breathe easy
No time to be young

But I tell myself that I'm doing alright
There's nothing left to do at night
But go crazy on you
Crazy on you
Let me go crazy, crazy on you

My love is the evening breeze touching your skin
The gentle sweet singing of leaves in the wind
The whisper that calls after you in the night
And kisses your ear in the early light

And you don't need to wonder, you're doing fine
And my love, the pleasure's mine
Let me go crazy on you
Crazy on you
Let me go crazy, crazy on you

Wild man's world is crying in pain
What you gonna do when everybody's insane?
So afraid of one who's so afraid of you
What you gonna do?

Crazy on you
Crazy on you
Let me go crazy, crazy on you

I was a willow last night in my dream
I bent down over a clear running stream
Sang you the song that I heard up above
And you kept me alive with your sweet flowing love

Crazy, crazy on you
Let me go crazy, crazy on you

Crazy on you
Crazy on you
Let me go crazy, crazy on you

Crazy on you
Crazy on you
Let me go crazy, crazy on you

I was showing women playing guitar in folk and rock for my 3 year old grand daughter who absolutely loves music and I played Joni Mitchell, Sandy Denny, John Baez and this clip with Nancy Wilson and after each video she was so excited and said, "I want a catar Grandpa"! Start them early on something that they gravitate to naturally! She has got the music bug and she's not afraid to sing in front of people and loves to perform! God bless her!!!

@julesmistyw

We grandparents have to show our grandkids what music really is. My 2 love watching music videos like this with me. The little one wanted me to label all the keys on the piano. So you know Nana did it and then wrote the letter notes under easy piano. She was so excited. She loves music so much. Its good for the soul as we know

@sidcampbell2942

@@julesmistyw glad to hear people teaching things like this and not just buying them a gun and wondering what went wrong?

@julesmistyw

​@@sidcampbell2942Precisely my friend. We don't have any violent songs, violent movies, violent games at this Nana's house! We have fun and color, play, etc while watching music videos with no ads on YouTube premium. Best thing I ever spent money on. Music is in my soul. ❤
