Keith Cook
Story behind the song
Awhile back I ended up with Leon Russell's drum machine.
I wrote 20 songs around everything left on it and there were 9 that he arranged which are denoted by the number he saved them on the machine as being included in the title, for example (Song 01).
I also included alternate versions of those 9 songs as instrumentals.
Lyrics
Like a child, I am happy inside these days
This love is crazy when I feel it with you
I used to be the rebel that had to hide
There was a time when I was happy alone
Now I finally see the one who knows for the truth
In the ways that I use the world
Like no one really anything can do
We step into a fading sunshine
all my happiness, is found in your arms
The sweetest sound is the sound of your voice
When you speak, it lifts my heart to higher ground
To feel my feet, get back on the ground
You got me feeling a little crazy
Came to in my dreams and I knew it was you
Gave my heart, gave my word
Gave my life to you
Love, love, love is crazy
Numb my heart baby
Love, love, love is crazy
You define me baby
Love, love, love is crazy
No one has ever known to love me like you do baby
Love, love, love is crazy
No one has ever known how to love me like you do baby
And its crazy how I never knew what love was
I got a crazy heart
You smile and I see inside
