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 ?
(chorus)
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 ?
(chorus)
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
