Calm Myself

You Keep Me From Going Crazy

Verse 1

When you're beside me, I can finally breathe,

All of the noise fades away from me.

You don't have to say a single word,

Just knowing you're there is all that I've heard.

But when the silence takes your place,

My mind starts running at a frightening pace.

I tell myself there's nothing wrong,

But somehow every minute feels so long.

Pre-Chorus

I know my heart is overthinking,

I know these thoughts aren't always true.

But every time I start to worry,

My mind somehow comes back to you.

Chorus

You keep me from going crazy,

Yeah, you do...

I made a vow, I'll never break it,

To be faithful and love you till the end.

But when you leave, my heart starts worrying,

Did I do something? What did I say?

It makes me go crazy,

But then I calm myself,

And convince myself I'll be okay.

Yeah, you keep me from going crazy.

Verse 2

I check the clock, then check it again,

Wondering when I'll hear from you.

I know you're busy, I know you have things,

But my mind makes up what it wants to.

Maybe I'm just scared of losing

Something that means this much to me.

So I breathe in slow and count to ten,

Remind myself you're still there with me.

Pre-Chorus

I know my heart is overthinking,

I know these thoughts aren't always true.

And even when the distance scares me,

I know my heart still trusts in you.

Chorus

You keep me from going crazy,

Yeah, you do...

I made a vow, I'll never break it,

To be faithful and love you till the end.

But when you leave, my heart starts worrying,

Did I do something? What did I say?

It makes me go crazy,

But then I calm myself,

And convince myself I'll be okay.

Yeah, you keep me from going crazy.

Bridge

Maybe love is learning patience,

Maybe trust is letting go.

Maybe I don't need every answer

Just to know what my heart knows.

And when those little fears come knocking,

I'll remind myself once more:

I don't have to chase tomorrow,

I can trust what's here before.

Final Chorus

You keep me from going crazy,

Yeah, you do...

I made a vow, I'll never break it,

To be faithful and love you till the end.

But when you leave, my heart starts worrying,

Did I do something? What did I say?

It makes me go crazy,

But then I calm myself,

And convince myself I'll be okay.

Yeah, you keep me from going crazy.

Outro

You keep me from going crazy...

Yeah, you do.

Even when my mind starts racing,

I'll remind myself of you.
