Something Crazy

Maddie got a Steven Curtis Chapman CD for Christmas, and while I was listening to it, one song sprung out, screaming, "THIS IS YOU!!!" Its words just seem to describe all the thoughts and emotions we have felt through the adoption and a million of other things. It is called "Something Crazy" and it goes like this...

He's got a Bible and megaphone standing on the corner 
And everybody's saying he's crazy
Well does he really think anybody wants to hear what he has to say
He's not screaming at anybody in fact he says
It's a love story that he's trying to tell them

And he knows he may look a little strange
But he just smiles and says that's okay
'Cause you know sometimes love makes you 
Act that way

And it's crazy when love gets a hold of you
And it's crazy things that love will make you do
And it's crazy but its true
You really don't know love at all
'Til its making you do
Something Crazy

I know a lady in Uganda, forty kids call her mama
And everybody thought it way crazy
She used to drive a beamer, but I've never seen her
Any happier than she is now
I've met them all around the world, they're the boys and girls
Filled up with the love of the Father

And they know it may seem a little strange
But they just smile and say that's alright
'Cause love puts everything in a different light

And it's crazy when love gets a hold of you
And it's crazy things that love will make you do
And it's crazy but its true
You really don't know love at all
'Til it's making you do
Something crazy

Well, some might say its a crazy thing
To believe in a man who would say he came
From heaven down to earth because of love

But I just smile and say thats okay
'Cause you know sometimes love makes you act that way

And it's crazy when love gets a hold of you
And it's crazy what things love will make you do
And it's crazy but it's true
You really don't know love at all
'Til it's making you do
Something crazy
