I was listening to this old Patsy Cline song last night and I’ve heard it a million times. I guess, last night, was the first time I truly heard it.

Crazy, I'm crazy for feeling so lonely
I'm crazy, crazy for feeling so blue
I knew you'd love me as long as you wanted
And then someday you'd leave me for somebody new.

**Worry, why do I let myself worry?
**Wonderin', what in the world did I do?
Crazy for thinking that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for trying and crazy for crying
And I'm crazy for loving you.

Crazy for thinking that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for trying and crazy for crying
And I'm crazy for loving you.

**I think Patsy hit the nail right on the head. So many times we are just plain Crazy.

It used to be the custom here to post lyrics we found relevant; here's my favorite...

Aimee Mann - Driving Sideways

At least you know you were taken by a pro
I know just how you feel
She talked a perfect game deflecting all the blame
you took the jack and changed the flat
and got behind the wheel -
now you're driving sideways
taken in by the scenery as you're propelled along
And your companion will not help you to navigate
for fear she may be wrong

And you will say that you're making headway
and put it in overdrive
but you're mistaking speed for getting what you need
and never even noticing you never do arrive
cause you're driving sideways
if you roll down the window you'll see
you're where you don't belong
And your companion will not help you to navigate
for fear she may be wrong

And you're powered by the hopeful lie
that it's just around the bend
and when this, by default
comes screeching to a halt
let's hope that you know what to do
to start it up again

Driving sideways
hitting scan on the radio so she can sing along
and she'll sit
thinking you're going to handle it
until she's proven wrong
until she's proven wrong
until you prove her wrong

Oh my,

Does this ever describe the last 12 years!
Thanks Dabigtrain.
Quote from lyrics:

cause you're driving sideways

dear god, help me to drive straight ahead

Crazy!

Yes, I am in complete agreement with your observations and Patsy song of truth! It really doesn't make logical sense to open one's heart to those who are not capable of respecting and valuing the heart/soul of another and a complete waste engeries in some cases.

I feel quite badly that I have overinvested in our marriage of 21 years. Looking back nothing of it was worth the stress, pain, deception, destruction, heartbreak and being taken advantaged of.

I am aware there are those who's partner may stumble once and truly learn from their experince to not repeat or at least develop a moral backbone somewhere along the way.

Tis a strange thing to live a person without a conscience and any remorse as it has been in my experince. So I must truly look at myself and remind my self of my part of being the crazy one to love such a person or have such poor judgement and to place my self in a voluntary prision of darkness.

What was I thinking? A complete waste of my life.

A good reminder for me not to hopefully ever repeat the same mistake again.

Smiles!

Bill- I listened to that same song by accident shortly after I got the divorce papers and started crying. <img border="0" alt="[Teary]" title="" src="graemlins/teary.gif" />

We are a crazy lot, that is for sure!

My dear DJ, Lost Husband is our dear Jester!!! He's supposed to be in the kingdom but I fear he is in personal exile. You have to be careful near him, though. He has a pointy pokey thing that causes all sorts of trouble.

Jester, that is one of my favorite songs. Has been since before the marital conflagration. I love it so much that last year, at a dinner dance I went to (alone), I asked the band to play it. I got the 4 ft tall Playmobil man, held it in my arms and danced with him while everyone else danced in normal couples. I love that song.

There's a great story to it. Willie Nelson wrote the song. Owen Bradley, Patsy Cline's record producer wanted her to sing it but she didn't think she could. So, he got the musicians to rehearse it and, when they were ready to his satisfaction, he cajoled her into going into the studio. They got it in ONE take. Last year - National Public Radio selected it as one of the 100 most important pieces of American music in the last 100 years. I think.
