Crazy For You
Adele · 19 [2008]
I found myself today singing out loud your name
You said I'm crazy if I am I'm crazy for you
Sometimes sitting in the dark wishing you were here turns me crazy
But it's you who makes me lose my head
And every time I'm meant to be acting sensible
You drift into my head and turn me into a crumbling fool
Tell me to run and I'll race
If you want me to stop I'll freeze
And if you want me gone I'll leave
Just hold me closer baby
And make me crazy for you
Crazy for you
Lately with this state I'm in I can't help myself but spin
I wish you'd come over
Send me spinning closer to you
My
Oh
My
How my blood boils
It's sweetest for you
It strips me down bare and gets me into my favourite mood
I keep on trying
I'm fighting these feelings away but the more I do the crazier I turn into
Pacing floors and opening doors
Hoping you'll walk through
And save me boy because I'm too crazy for you
Crazy for you
You said I'm crazy if I am I'm crazy for you
Sometimes sitting in the dark wishing you were here turns me crazy
But it's you who makes me lose my head
And every time I'm meant to be acting sensible
You drift into my head and turn me into a crumbling fool
Tell me to run and I'll race
If you want me to stop I'll freeze
And if you want me gone I'll leave
Just hold me closer baby
And make me crazy for you
Crazy for you
Lately with this state I'm in I can't help myself but spin
I wish you'd come over
Send me spinning closer to you
My
Oh
My
How my blood boils
It's sweetest for you
It strips me down bare and gets me into my favourite mood
I keep on trying
I'm fighting these feelings away but the more I do the crazier I turn into
Pacing floors and opening doors
Hoping you'll walk through
And save me boy because I'm too crazy for you
Crazy for you
