Sting - Mad About You

A stone's throw from JerusalemI walked a lonely mile in the moonlightAnd through a million stars were shiningMy heart was lost on a distant planetThat whirls around the April moonWhirling in an arc of sadnessI'm lost without youI'm lost without youThough all my kingdoms turn to sandAnd fall into the seaI'm mad about youI'm mad about youFrom the dark secluded valleysI heard the ancient songs of sadnessBut every step I thought of youEvery footstep, only youEvery star a grain of sandThe leavings of a dried up oceanTell me, how much longer?How much longer?They say a city in the desert liesThe vanity of an ancient kingThe city lies in broken piecesWhere the wind howls and the vultures singThese are the works of manThis is the sum of our ambitionIt would make a prison of my lifeIf you became another's wifeWith every prison blown to dustMy enemies walk freeI'm mad about youI'm mad about youAnd I've never in my lifeFelt more alone than I do nowAlthough I claim dominions over all I seeIt means nothing to meThere are no victoriesIn all our histories without loveA stone is throw from JerusalemI walked a lonely mile in the moonlightAnd through a million stars were shiningMy heart was lost on a distant planetThat whirls around the April moonWhirling in an arc of sadnessI'm lost without youI'm lost without youAnd though you hold the keys to ruinOf everything I seeWith every prison blown to dustMy enemies walk freeThough all my kingdoms turn to sandAnd fall into the seaI'm mad about youI'm mad about you
