Let 'em tell us stories
As we're lying in the fields
And watch the birds soar above
Let 'em tell us of love and loss
How we'll live and how we'll die
'Cause they say he once was
Somebody with a black suit
And good shoes
And a perfect smile
It makes me wanna ask

Was it in a mad love
And the big fights
So was it in a small change
And the passing of days
So was it in a giving up
And a giving on
No, was it in a mad love
So was it in a mad love
So was it in a mad love
And the big fights

Let 'em tell us stories
As we're lying in the field
And watch the clouds pass above
How paper burns and pictures fade
Only melody remains
Sure enough he laughs as if he knows
Makes me wanna ask

Was it in a mad love
Was it in the big fights
So was it in the right words
At the right times
Was it in a giving up
And a moving on
No, was it in a mad love
So was it in a mad love
So was it in a mad love
So was it in the little things
We all want

(We all want)
(We all want)

Was it in a mad love
And the big fights
So was it in a small change
And the passing of days
So was it in a giving up
And a giving on
No, was it in a mad love
So was it in a mad love
So was it in a mad love
So was it in a mad love
So was it in a mad love
And the big fights
