Let 'em tell us stories
As we're lying in the fields
And watch a bird soar above
Let 'em tell us of love and loss
How we'll live and how we'll die
Cos 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?
