Crazy To Love You Lyrics

Leonard Cohen Crazy To Love You

I had to go crazy to love you 

Had to go down to the pit 

Had to do time in the tower 

Beggin' my crazy to quit


I had to go crazy to love you 

You who were never the one 

Whom I chased through the 
souvenir heartache 

Her braids and her blouse all undone


Sometimes I'd head for the highway

I'm old and the mirrors don't lie 

But crazy has places to hide in 

That are deeper than any goodbye


Had to go crazy to love you 

Had to let everything fall


Had to be people I hated 

Had to be no one at all

I'm tired of choosing desire

I've been saved by a blessed fatigue 

The gates of commitment unwired

And nobody trying to leave

Sometimes I'd head for the highway

I'm old and the mirrors don't lie 

But crazy has places to hide in
That are deeper than any goodbye


I had to go crazy to love you 

You who were never the one 

Whom I chased through the 
souvenir heartache 

Her braids and her blouse all undone
