lyrics

I’ve found you out here in the world, I am a boy you are a girl
Just take my hand I want to love you

She says: You don’t know what it is you seek, I’ve only given you a peek
Just let it go my dear

The time we took I’d take again, I see you more than just a friend
I know it’s crazy but that’s what we do

If this is lunacy
Then baby I’m mad
When did the good go bad?

If this is lunacy
Then I’m crazy for you
But to end all this, and all this could be
Wasn’t something I thought we’d do

I never thought I’d be that guy, until I saw you in the sky
I think you’re beautiful please stay

She says you know that never was the plan, and while you’re quite a lovely man
I always disappear

Without you everything’s mundane, and everything just stays the same
My life is just a shade of grey

Who do I think I have to blame, the only one who can start change
Is me

If this is lunacy
Then I’m unhinged
Like a moth who flew too close to the light

If this is lunacy
Then I’m insane
But I’ve gotta be to love you
And to let you go again
