Mad About You

A stone's throw from Jerusalem

I walked a lonely mile in the moonlight

And though a million stars were shining

My heart was lost on a distant planet

That whirls around the April moon

Whirling in an arc of sadness

I'm lost without you

I'm lost without you

Though all my kingdoms turn to sand

And fall into the sea

I'm mad about you

I'm mad about you

From the dark secluded valleys

I heard the ancient songs of sadness

But every step, I thought of you

Every footstep only you

Every star a grain of sand

The leavings of a dried-up ocean

Tell me, how much longer?

How much longer?

They say a city in the desert lies

That discovered ancient kingdom

The city lies in broken pieces

Where the wind howls and the vultures sing

These are the works of man

This is the sum of our ambition

It would make a prison of my life

If you became another's wife

With every prison blown to dust

My enemies walk free

I'm mad about you

I'm mad about you

And I have never in my life

Felt more alone than I do now

Although I claim dominions overall, I see

It means nothing to me

There are no victories

In all our histories

Without love

A stone's throw from Jerusalem

I walked a lonely mile in the moonlight

And though a million stars were shining

My heart was lost on a distant planet

That whirls around the April moon

Whirling in an arc of sadness

I'm lost without you

I'm lost without you

Though you hold the keys to ruin

Of everything I see

With every prison blown to dust

My enemies walk free

Though all my kingdoms turn to sand

And fall into the sea

I'm mad about you

I'm mad about you
