[Verse 1]
Lookin' back on my wild years and all I put folks through
I could've turned out so much worse, so I sowed a wild oat or two
I was a spittin' image of my old man and I charmed the ladies like some fancy dan
Still I never started livin' 'til I started lovin' you
[Verse 2]
I walked into a whole lotta bars, even crawled out of a few
Speedin' tickets on an old shovel-head, just it never ran worth a damn
I tried college and it bored me to tears, I guess my color was a little too blue
Still I never started livin' 'til I started lovin' you
[Chorus]
Crazy days I have known
All that ends in the bat of an eye and you give up livin' on your own
Crazy ways, they're beatin' me black and blue
I guess I never started livin' 'til I started lovin' you
[Verse 4]
Re-arrangin' and changin my life from alone to bein' with you
I'm walkin' out on a whole lotta nothin' just to have somethin' true
Sheddin' my skin and I'm kissin' goodbye a fool with nothin' to do
Still I never started livin' 'til I started lovin' you
[Chorus]
Crazy days I have known
All that ends in the bat of an eye when you give up livin' on your own
Crazy ways, they're beatin' me black and blue
I guess I never started livin' 'til I started lovin' you
I guess I never started livin' 'til I started lovin' you
