He came into town
He was mad with love
Oh mad with love
The whole of the town
Oh they began to weep
The rich and the poor
When they heard him speak
Oh, the madness of love
Oh, the madness of love
Oh, it's the madness of love
Oh, the madness of love
Oh, the madness of love
Oh, it's the madness of love
My tongue, my tears,
I still don't know
If my words
Or my tears should flow
Now if I speak,
Well my tears stop falling
And if I weep,
My tongue stops calling
Oh, the madness of love
Oh, the madness of love
Oh, it's the madness of love
Oh, the madness of love
Oh, the madness of love
Oh, it's the madness of love
I'm talking crazy,
Laughing crazy
Weeping crazy,
Going crazy
Like on that day
When everyone is gathered
Like the worn out man,
They all wept together
Oh, the madness of love
Oh, the madness of love
Oh, it's the madness of love
Oh, the madness of love
Oh, the madness of love
Oh, it's the madness of love
The town was a river
They wept like rain
The town vanished
They stood on a plain
Like Judgement day
When everyone is gathered
They stood on the plain
And wept together
Oh, the madness of love
Oh, the madness of love
Oh, it's the madness of love
Oh, the madness of love
Oh, the madness of love
Oh, it's the madness of love
Oh, the madness of love
Oh, the madness of love
Oh, it's the madness of love
Oh, the madness of love
Oh, the madness of love
Oh, it's the madness of love
A worn out man He came into town He was mad with love Oh mad with love The whole of the town Oh they began to weep The rich and the poor When they heard him speak Oh, the madness of love Oh, the madness of love Oh, it's the madness of love Oh, the madness of love Oh, the madness of love Oh, it's the madness of love My tongue, my tears, I still don't know If my words Or my tears should flow Now if I speak, Well my tears stop falling And if I weep, My tongue stops calling Oh, the madness of love Oh, the madness of love Oh, it's the madness of love Oh, the madness of love Oh, the madness of love Oh, it's the madness of love I'm talking crazy, Laughing crazy Weeping crazy, Going crazy Like on that day When everyone is gathered Like the worn out man, They all wept together Oh, the madness of love Oh, the madness of love Oh, it's the madness of love Oh, the madness of love Oh, the madness of love Oh, it's the madness of love The town was a river They wept like rain The town vanished They stood on a plain Like Judgement day When everyone is gathered They stood on the plain And wept together Oh, the madness of love Oh, the madness of love Oh, it's the madness of love Oh, the madness of love Oh, the madness of love Oh, it's the madness of love Oh, the madness of love Oh, the madness of love Oh, it's the madness of love Oh, the madness of love Oh, the madness of love Oh, it's the madness of love Explain Request ×
