"Crazy Faith" lyrics

Alison Krauss & Union Station Lyrics

"Crazy Faith"

I lit my love and watched it burn
Asking nothing in return
Except the lessons I've been learned
Holding crazy faith
I've been touched by that bright fire
Down to the root of my desire
While the smoke, it rises higher
Holding crazy faith

You're not asking if I love this man
I know you don't, you don't believe you can
Yet I've seen love open like a dancer's fan
It's crazy, I know, but my faith says so
It tells me

Am I an old fool for hanging on?
Would I be a fool to be long gone?
When has daylight gone to dawn
Oh, my crazy faith
The questions will not let me sleep
Answers buried way too deep
At the bottom of our loveless game
Made by crazy faith

You're not asking if I love this man
I know you don't, you don't believe you can
Yet I've seen love open like a dancer's fan
It's crazy, I know, but my faith says so
It tells me

Love you lose and lose your love
Let the hope fly from the glove
And do not search the skies above
Search your crazy faith
Love is lightning, love is ice
It only strikes the lucky twice
Once so you will know the price
Once for crazy faith

You're not asking if love this man
I know you don't, you don't believe you can
Yet I've seen love open like a dancer's fan
It's crazy, I know, but my faith says so
