U2 – I'll Go Crazy If I Don't Go Crazy Tonight lyrics

She's a rainbow and she loves the peaceful life
Knows I'll go crazy if I don't go crazy tonight
There's a part of me in the chaos that's quiet
And there's a part of you that wants me to riot

Everybody needs to cry or needs to spit
Every sweet tooth needs just a little hit
Every beauty needs to go out with an idiot
How can you stand next to the truth and not see it?
A change of heart comes slow

It's not a hill, it's a mountain as you start out the climb
Do you believe me or are you doubting?
Though we're gonna make it all the way to the light
But I know I'll go crazy if I don't go crazy tonight

Every generation gets a chance to change the world
Pity the nation that won't listen to your boys and girls
'Cause the sweetest melody is the one we haven't heard
Is it true that perfect love drives out all fear?
The right to appear ridiculous is something I hold dear
Oh, but a change of heart comes slow

It's not a hill, it's a mountain as you start out the climb
Listen for me, I'll be shouting
Though we're gonna make it all the way to the light
But I know I'll go crazy if I don't go crazy tonight

Baby, baby, baby, I know I'm not alone
Baby, baby, baby, I know I'm not alone, hey, hey, hey

Oh, oh, oh, it's not a hill, it's a mountain as we start out the climb
Listen for me, I'll be shouting
Shouting to the darkness, squeeze out sparks of light
You know we're gonna go crazy, you know we'll go crazy
You know we'll go crazy if we don't go crazy tonight

Oh, slowly now, oh, oh, real slow
