You took your coat off and stood in the rain,
|
You're always crazy like that.
|
And I watched from my window,
|
Always felt I was outside looking in on you.
|
You're always the mysterious one with
|
Dark eyes and careless hair,
|
You were fashionably sensitive
|
But too cool to care.
|
You stood in my doorway, with nothing to say
|
Besides some comment on the weather.
|
|
[Pre-Chorus 1]
|
Well in case you failed to notice,
|
In case you failed to see,
|
This is my heart bleeding before you,
|
This is me down on my knees, and...
|
|
[Chorus]
|
These foolish games are tearing me apart,
|
And your thoughtless words are breaking my heart.
|
You're breaking my heart.
|
You're always brilliant in the morning,
|
Smoking your cigarettes and talking over coffee.
|
Your philosophies on art, Baroque moved you.
|
You loved Mozart and you'd speak of your loved ones
|
As I clumsily strummed my guitar.
|
You'd teach me of honest things,
|
Things that were daring, things that were clean.
|
Things that knew what an honest dollar did mean.
|
I hid my soiled hands behind my back.
|
Somewhere along the line, I must've gone
|
Off track with you.
|
|
[Pre-Chorus 2]
|
Well, excuse me, guess I've mistaken you for somebody else,
|
Somebody who gave a damn,
|
Somebody more like myself.
|
|
[Chorus]
|
You took your coat off,
|
Stood in the rain,
|
You're always crazy like that.
