Enlighten Me
In my mind, I write you letters all the time
Somehow i never get the pen to paper
And in my life my words always rhyme
And it's a shame I don't hate her or blame her

Look at that, I'm 29
And not much has changed since the last time we danced
And I'm good, I'm good, I swear to god I'm fine
I'm just scared to death to take a chance

I think you're crazier than me
I think you're crazy as can be
And it frightens me so enlighten me

I got your note about the day the girl fell --
A five story window I don't know too well
And i never wrote you back (can't you tell?)
That in my mind the image just climbs

I spent too long with the wrong kinds of men
One went to Iraq, came back, but fled again
And i think of them - I do, now and then
It only reminds me, that's all behind me

I think you're crazier than me
I think you're crazy as can be
And it frightens me, so enlighten me

The things in this life we're striving to get
Are the same as those finding us fools of regret
I remember clearly the day we met
Cause your voice was crystal and your hair was so gold

The need for new love — it's loyalty to an old
Though i don't believe it's what i'm being told
Remember on the platform we stood in the cold?
I wonder how we'll stand it, one day when we're old . .

Will you still be crazy about me?
Will you still be crazy as can be?
Cause it frightens me, enlighten me

Now who'd ever guess one day we'd cross feet
The corner where Houston and Essex street meet
And who'd ever guess you'd envision our kid
In the back of a car drivin' over a bridge

I don't know how much more i'll take of all this
Do we come apart or do we join at the hip?
Or do we both flip a coin; heads or tails — tell me quick —
Heads means let's say tails says walk away!

I think you're crazy, i think you're crazier than me
I think you're crazy as can be
And it frightens me, enlighten me

Time passes on and we pick up the pen
Though we barely write a word before we put it down again
I'm asking myself ain't the sole intention
To be riddled with love without any question?

It's time we give the lunatic business arrest
You're borderline romantic at worst i guess
I made a mistake i got it all wrong
It's me who's insane, but for the sake of my song

I made you crazier than me
I may be crazy as can be
And it frightens me, so enlighten me

I write you letters all the time in my mind
I write you letters all the time in my mind
I write you letters all the time in my mind
I write you letters...
