Katie Melua
How can i think i`m standing strall.
Yet feel the air beneeth my feet.
how can happyness feel so wrong?
How can missery feel so smooth.
How can you let me watch you sleep?
Then break my dreams the way you do.
How can i`ve get in so deep.
Why did i fell in love with you ?
This is the closest thing to crazy i have ever been..
feelin 22, acting 17.. this is the nearest thing to crazy i have ever known. i was
never crazy on my own. and now i know that theres a link between the 2. being close
to crazyness and being close to you...
how can you let me fall appart ?
then break my fall with lovin life.
its so easy to break a hart.
its so easy to close your eyes.
how can you tread me like a child ?
Yeah like a child a young for you.
How vcan anyone feel so wild
how can anyone feel so blue
