You took your coat off and stood in the rain, You're always crazy like that. And I watched from my window, Always felt I was outside looking in you. You're always the mysterious one with Dark eyes and careless hair, You were fashionably sensitive But too cool to care. You stood in my doorway, nothing to say Besides some comment on the weather.
[Pre-Chorus 1] Well in case you failed to notice, In you failed to see, This is my heart bleeding before you, This is me on my knees, and...
[Chorus] These foolish games are tearing me apart, And your thoughtless words are breaking my heart. You're breaking my heart. You're always in the morning, Smoking your cigarettes and talking over coffee. Your philosophies on art, Baroque moved you. You loved Mozart and you'd speak of your loved ones As I clumsily strummed my guitar.
You'd teach of honest things Things that were daring, things that were clean Things that what an honest dollar did mean So I hid my soiled hands behind my back Somewhere along the line I must've gone off track with you
[Pre-Chorus 2] Well, excuse me, guess mistaken you for somebody else, Somebody who gave a damn, Somebody like myself.
[Chorus] You took your coat off, Stood in the rain, You're always crazy like that.
