The Closest Thing To Crazy

How can I think I'm standing strong? 
Yet feel the air beneath my feet 
How can happiness feel so wrong? 
How can misery feel so sweet? 

How can you let me watch you sleep? 
Then break my dreams the way you do 
How can I have got in so deep? 
Why did I fall in love with you? 

This is the closest thing to crazy 
I have ever been 
Feeling twenty-two, acting seventeen 
This is the nearest thing to crazy 
I have ever known 
I was never crazy on my own 
And now I know 
That there's a link between the two 
Being close to craziness, and being close to you 

How can you make me fall apart? 
Then break my fall with loving lies 
It's so easy to break a heart 
It's so easy to close your eyes 

How can you treat me like a child? 
Yet like a child I yearn for you 
How can anyone feel so wild? 
How can anyone feel so blue? 

This is the closest thing to crazy 
I have ever been 
Feeling twenty-two, acting seventeen 
This is the nearest thing to crazy 
I have ever known 
I was never crazy on my own 
And now I know 
That there's a link between the two 
Being close to craziness, and being close to you 

And being close to you 
And being close to you
