I was out with the morning sun,
couldn’t sleep, so I thought I’d take a walk.
I was thinking of you and me,
and I went to your house ’cos I had to talk.
I could hardly believe my eyes
when I saw this guy closing your front door.
Had a feeling of emptiness
like I’d never had before.
And I closed my eyes.
Will you leave me, girl?
Man, I realized
it’s a crazy world.
As he disappeared in his car,
I was stunned and I didn’t know what to do.
Everything I had ever dreamed,
everything in my life’s a part of you.
And I just couldn’t move my feet,
so I stood on the pavement as you came out.
You acted as you didn’t know
what it was all about.
And I closed my eyes.
Will you leave me, girl?
Man, I realized
it’s a crazy world.
Baby, how could you do it?
You just told me lies.
And you hid behind my back with other guys.
Baby, how could you tell me
there was only me?
I was stupid to believe you.
I was blind, but now I see.
Then you smiled and you took my hand.
“There is something”, you said “that you may not know.
There’s a couple of men in my life,
and one of them is my brother Joe.
He’s been gone for a long long time,
but he’s back and I think he’s gonna stay.
You’ll be seeing a lot of him,
he’s so nice in every way.”
And I closed my eyes.
Never leave me, girl.
Man, I realized
it’s a crazy world.
So I closed my eyes.
Never leave me, girl.
Man, I realized
it’s a crazy world.
So I closed my eyes.
Never leave me, girl.
Man, I realized
it’s a crazy world.
