Mad About You Lyrics - Anita Baker

A stone's throw from Jerusalem 

I walked a lonely mile in the moonlight 

And through a million stars were shining 

My heart was lost on a distant planet 

That whirls around the April moon 

Whirling in an arc of sadness 

I'm lost without you I'm lost without you 

Though all my kingdoms turn to sand 

And fall into the sea 

I'm mad about you I'm mad about you 

And from the dark secluded valleys 

I heard the ancient songs of sadness 

But every step I thought of you 

Every footstep only you 

And every star a grain of sand 

The leavings of a dried up ocean 

Tell me, how much longer? How much longer? 

They say a city in the desert lies 

The vanity of an ancient king 

But the city lies in broken pieces 

Where the wind howls and the vultures sing 

These are the works of man 

This is the sum of our ambition 

It would make a prison of my life 

If you became another's wife 

With every prison blown to dust 

My enemies walk free 

I'm mad about you I'm mad about you 

And I have never in my life 

Felt more alone than I do now 

Although I claim dominions over all I see 

It means nothing to me 

There are no vitories 

In all our histories, without love 

A stone's throw from Jerusalem 

I walked a lonely mile in the moonlight 

And through a million stars were shining 

My heart was lost on a distant planet 

That whirls around the April moon 

Whirling in an arc of sadness 

I'm lost without you I'm lost without you 

And though you hold the keys to ruin 

Of everything I see 

With every prison blown to dust, 

My enemies walk free 

Though all my kingdoms turn to sand 

And fall into the sea 

I'm mad about you I'm mad about you
