Am I Crazy?
Please tell me I’m crazy
Please tell me I am
Cause it all gets hazy
When I think of a certain man
Tell me I’m insane
To care as I do
And put myself in pain
The way I carry on as I do
It’s like I’m in a torture chamber
Every night I’m alone in bed
I lay quiet there
As visions of you dance in my head
It’s God’s doing
Granting me this request
To feel the loving
In a dream – as a test
Did he care?
It seemed so
Was I really there?
And do I need to know
The past is behind me
I need to look onward
And leave this dark sea
I need to move forward
It’s time to think of me
And to leave him behind
It’s time to remember me
And see who else I can find
I know I’m out there
Living happily
Instead of in here
Being haunted by memories.
