Lyrics Mad About You (Original Remix) - Sting

A stone's throw from Jerusalem
I walked a lonely mile in the moonlight
And though 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

From the dark secluded valleys
I heard the ancient songss of sadness
But every step I thought of you
Every footstep only you

Every star a grain of sand
The leavings of a dried up ocean
Tell me, how much longer?
How much longer?

All my kingdoms turn to sand
And fall into the sea
I'm mad about you, I'm mad about you
I'm mad about you, I'm mad about you

They say a city in the desert lies
The vanity of an ancient king
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
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
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 victories
In all our histories without love

A stone's throw from Jerusalem
I walked a lonely mile in the moonlight
And though 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 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
