The closest thing to crazy - Katie Melua

The closest thing to crazy - Katie Melua

01 maart 2015
Zoet? Zeg maar gerust mierzoet. Een deuntje dat balanceert op het randje van wel en niet kunnen. Valt daar ook regelmatig overheen, maar van tijd tot tijd kan ie wat mij betreft prima. Katie maakte lang geleden indruk bij de 1e kennismaking in Vredenburg en heeft daar haar streepje voor aan overgehouden.
And now I know that there's a link between the two
being close to craziness and being close to you
Katie Melua

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
