[00:11.78]
[00:15.11]How can I think I'm standing strong,
[00:21.27]Yet feel the air beneath my feet?
[00:28.31]How can happiness feel so wrong?
[00:34.80]How can misery feel so sweet?
[00:41.16]
[00:42.04]How can you let me watch you sleep,
[00:48.58]Then break my dreams the way you do?
[00:55.59]How can I have got in so deep?
[01:02.15]Why did I fall in love with you?
[01:08.53]
[01:09.01]This is the closest thing to crazy I have ever been
[01:16.15]Feeling twenty-two, acting seventeen,
[01:23.83]This is the nearest thing to crazy I have ever known,
[01:31.35]I was never crazy on my own.
[01:37.91]And now I know that there's a link between the two,
[01:47.21]Being close to craziness and being close to you.
[01:57.64]
[02:08.00]How can you make me fall apart
[02:13.86]Then break my fall with loving lies?
[02:20.84]It's so easy to break a heart;
[02:27.46]It's so easy to close your eyes.
[02:35.01]How can you treat me like a child
[02:41.02]Yet like a child I yearn for you?
[02:47.95]How can anyone feel so wild?
[02:54.75]How can anyone feel so blue?
[03:00.42]
[03:01.11]This is the closest thing to crazy I have ever been
[03:08.74]Feeling twenty-two, acting seventeen,
[03:16.31]This is the nearest thing to crazy I have ever known,
[03:23.78]I was never crazy on my own.
[03:30.09]And now I know that there's a link between the two,
[03:39.68]Being close to craziness and being close to you...
[03:50.95]and being close to you, and being close to you.
