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
