Just Crazy
Before you:
I walked around in a haze
never wanted to show my face
didn't think I'd ever find someone
to heal the damage some people had done
And then:
you came along out of nowhere
showed me how to hold my head up high
like I could fly and touch the sky
with you I liked the person I became
we had started more than just a flame
you taught me to love so effortlessly
seemed like we were meant to be
we never saw the end in sight
damn the horizons we wanted to expand that night
After you:
I thought Id moved on
and was being strong
stepping aside so you could be happy
I always wanted that for you above everything
so we'd made our choices
and went our own way
I just didn't know that one day
you had always had my heart
even though being away from you still tears it apart
and that finding someone new would never change
the love we had just turned a page
and whenever we saw each other it set the stage
for our feelings to start the show
guess I can't just let go
And now:
I try to explain to everyone how I still feel about you and why
but then I start to cry
because I can't even explain it fully to myself
the pain, guilt, and regrets I have of not letting you know long ago
my true feelings, but I swear back then I didn't know
what I was feeling inside
now it's like my life has capsized
to young to really understand so I to was running scared
and believed I didn't deserve to have you care
so I walked away
biggest mistake I've ever made
I know for sure without a doubt
I'm still in love with you
in which ZI see no way out
see to me true love is never in disguise
and it don't tell lies
so when you looked deep into my eyes
did you realize
you were in love with me to
is this when it scared you
I believe what we had was true
so is what I'm saying real for you or am I just crazy
I'm so damn tire now but
I rarely sleep in the night
hoping for the chance to once again make it right
won't ever forget you because you changed me so much
I long for your touch
can't stop thinking of you in every way
every second of every day
I can't do like years before and tuck your memory safely away
I know now that the time is due
for me to say how much
I'm still in love with you
wonder if you feel it to or am I just crazy
