Gypsy man   the river has seen   our lost melodies   with their notes so warm   moon banjo   down a river in the breeze   he was singin’   catfish blues   split apart   shot through the heart   why did you make me feel this   need?   crazy love, my name is in your    blood   and what your true love’s done   to me      you blew through my life   some fleeting years ago   from the midwest plains and   rivers   to find the peace to grow   I was burning   and you walked soft   talked soft   like an animal   on silent feet   on a block of snow   you were looking for a true love   to light the way      but it’s all gone   with your deer’s eyes   and your ways of steel   you could travel miles and miles   in a blind reel   but I’d know you, crazy love   and turn my foolish heart away      oh, my lover   father of my unborn star   I may ache behind your snake-cold    back   but my will is as strong as you   are   with your deer’s eyes   I know so well   your ways of steel   I wonder if I ever knew you?   crazy love, it’s a crazy love   I’m empty from your weakness   pregnant with the knowledge   and the flame of your true love
