[Verse 1]
Let the sun beat through the clouds, let me kiss you on the mouth
All my childhood toys with chew marks in my smile
Let me hold your syrup close to mine
And I want you, Hollywood and Vine
And I want you like the movies, touch me now
[Chorus]
I love you crazy, just keep on
I love you madly, just keep on
You wipe my lips, you turn me on
My attentions are turned to you
[Verse 2]
Did I dream you were a tourist in the Arizona sun?
I could see you there with Luna moths and watermelon gum
I woke up in the sleeping bag with nowhere else to run
You're standing in the bathroom telling me it's all in fun
[Chorus]
I love you crazy, just keep on
I love you madly, just keep on
You wipe my lips, you turn me on
My attentions are turned to you
[Verse 3]
I can whisper in your ear, I can write a calendar year
I can wing around your Saturn smile, a trial balloon
I have walked the tension wire line
And I learned to disrespect the signs
And I want you like a Pisces rising, key the move
[Chorus]
I love you crazy, just keep on
I love you madly, just keep watch
You wipe my lips, you turn me on
My attentions are turned to you
[Outro]
You
You
You
Let the sun beat through the clouds, let me kiss you on the mouth
All my childhood toys with chew marks in my smile
Let me hold your syrup close to mine
And I want you, Hollywood and Vine
And I want you like the movies, touch me now
[Chorus]
I love you crazy, just keep on
I love you madly, just keep on
You wipe my lips, you turn me on
My attentions are turned to you
[Verse 2]
Did I dream you were a tourist in the Arizona sun?
I could see you there with Luna moths and watermelon gum
I woke up in the sleeping bag with nowhere else to run
You're standing in the bathroom telling me it's all in fun
[Chorus]
I love you crazy, just keep on
I love you madly, just keep on
You wipe my lips, you turn me on
My attentions are turned to you
[Verse 3]
I can whisper in your ear, I can write a calendar year
I can wing around your Saturn smile, a trial balloon
I have walked the tension wire line
And I learned to disrespect the signs
And I want you like a Pisces rising, key the move
[Chorus]
I love you crazy, just keep on
I love you madly, just keep watch
You wipe my lips, you turn me on
My attentions are turned to you
[Outro]
