Crazy Love - Laura Nyro

Gypsy man

The river has seen

Our lost melodies

With their notes so warm

Moon banjo

Down a river in the breeze

He was singin'

Catfish blues

Split apart

Shot through the heart

Why did you make me feel this

Need?

Crazy love, my name is in your

Blood

And what your true love’s done

To me You blew through my life

Some fleeting years ago

From the midwest plains and

Rivers

To find the peace to grow

I was burning

And you walked soft

Talked soft

Like an animal

On silent feet

On a block of snow

You were looking for a true love

To light the way

But it’s all gone

With your deer’s eyes

And your ways of steel

You could travel miles and miles

In a blind reel

But I’d know you, crazy love

And turn my foolish heart away

Oh, my lover

Father of my unborn star

I may ache behind your snake-cold

Back

But my will is as strong as you

Are

With your deer’s eyes

I know so well

Your ways of steel

I wonder if I ever knew you?

Crazy love, it’s a crazy love

I’m empty from your weakness

Pregnant with the knowledge

And the flame of your true love
