You Might Think Lyrics
Oh well you might think I'm crazy
To hang around with you
Or maybe you think I'm lucky
To have something to do
But I think that you're wild
Inside me is some child
You might think I'm foolish
Or maybe it's untrue [/but baby it's untrue]
You might think I'm crazy
All I want is you
You might think it's hysterical
That I know when you're weak
You think you're in the movies
And everything's so deep
But I think that you're wild
When you flash that fragile smile
You might think it's foolish
What you put me through
You might think I'm crazy
All I want is you
And it was hard
So hard to take
There's no escape
Without a scrape
But you kept it going
'til the sun fell down
You kept it...goin'
Oh well you might think I'm delirious
The way I run you down
But somewhere, sometimes
When you're curious
I'll be back around
And I think that you're wild
And so uniquely styled
You might think it's foolish
This chancey rendezvous
You might think I'm crazy
All I want is you
All I want is you
All I want is you
To hang around with you
Or maybe you think I'm lucky
To have something to do
But I think that you're wild
Inside me is some child
Or maybe it's untrue [/but baby it's untrue]
You might think I'm crazy
All I want is you
That I know when you're weak
You think you're in the movies
And everything's so deep
But I think that you're wild
When you flash that fragile smile
What you put me through
You might think I'm crazy
All I want is you
So hard to take
There's no escape
Without a scrape
But you kept it going
'til the sun fell down
You kept it...goin'
The way I run you down
But somewhere, sometimes
When you're curious
I'll be back around
And I think that you're wild
And so uniquely styled
This chancey rendezvous
You might think I'm crazy
All I want is you
All I want is you
All I want is you

no one commented on this! ah i love this song to no end. "you might think i'm crazy, but all i want is you" best line.
We're all a little crazy sometimes. If a guy was chasing after me, I would think he was crazy too. Ric is a genius.
I love this song so much! Perfectly sums up me and my girl, I swear if she says she's a boring person one more time...
I showed her this song and, well, to say the least, she was happy...such a classic, and brilliant lyrics! One of the best from the Cars in my opinion!
Well I hope it means to the MAN OF MY DREAMS that 'ALL HE WANTS IS ME' coz 'ALL I WANT IS HIM!' ggl ggl And he left this song in a place that I would find it. Praying for a soonas rendezvous!
XOX
Adam Duritz of Counting Crows put out a solo album of covers with this on there a couple weeks ago, his version is amazing. I'd suggest everyone give it a listen. The Cars version is good too but I prefer Counting Crows style piano.
I actually think that this song is written from the perspective of a guy who is in love with a girl in depression. The girl has problems with her self-esteem and self-confidence so she thinks that this guy is crazy for loving her. The girl has an emotional breakdown when this guy, her best friend as weel as her boyfriend, was with her. But they guy knows her so well that he can understand her feelings, she tries to escape from reality and she has some pessimistic even suicidal thoughts(ı know you're weaj/ you think youre in the movies/everythings so deep). But the guy doesn't leave her because he is in love with her, he makes the girl smile, a fragile smile. This guys affection for this girl is so much that although he is hurt while trying to help her(there is no escape without a scrape) he didn't leave her. The refrain part of the song focuses on the feeling's of the girl, she thinks that the boy is crazy for not leaving this problematic girl. The guy sees her to be perfect no matter what happens.
Great night time driving song. Song sounds like it's about a girl with low self-esteem (probably shy and beautiful) who thinks a boy who likes her is crazy for hanging out / liking her.
Well silentexclamation it is on the Greatest Hits for The Cars. XD
