You took your coat off, and stood in the rain
You were always crazy like that
And I watched from my window
Always felt I was outside, looking in, on you
You were always the mysterious one with
Dark eyes and careless hair
You were, fashionably sensitive, but too cool to care
You stood in my doorway, with nothing to say
Besides some comment on the weather
Well in case you failed to notice
In case you failed to see
This is my heart bleeding before you
This is me down on my knees
1-These foolish games are tearing me apart
And your thoughtless words are breaking my heart
You're breaking my heart
You were always brilliant in the morning
Smoking your cigarettes, and talking over coffee
You're 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 me of honest things
Things that were daring, things that were clean
Things that knew 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)
Excuse me, think I've mistaken you for somebody else
Somebody who gave a damn, somebody more like myself
(repeat 1...)
You took your coat off and stood in the rain
You were always crazy like that
