When the Madness is Over

I see you when I sleep,
‘Cause you color all my dreams, 
Though you’re not far away,
I know I can’t come home to stay.

‘Cause the world outside is crazy,
And we just can’t risk it baby,
There’s way too much going around,
But I wish that I could see you, see you now.

But we can’t,
It’s not a good idea,
And though I know it’s true.
I need a hand, 
‘Cause it doesn’t feel real,
And I need to be near to you.
But you say:

I know it’s hard lately,
‘Cause we want to be closer,
Just stay strong and safe, 
And I’ll see you when the madness is over. 
I know we’ll start to crave,
To get a little bit closer,
Just stay strong and safe, 
And I’ll see you when the madness is over. 

It’s getting to the point,
Where I don’t know what to do,
‘Cause I’d do anything,
Anything just to hold you.

But we can’t,
It’s not a good idea,
And though I know it’s true.
I need a hand, 
‘Cause it doesn’t feel real,
And I need to be near to you.
But you say:

I know it’s hard lately,
‘Cause we want to be closer,
Just stay strong and safe, 
And I’ll see you when the madness is over. 
I know we’ll start to crave,
To get a little bit closer,
Just stay strong and safe, 
And I’ll see you when the madness is over. 

Madness, madness,
Madness, madness,
Madness, madness,
Just tell me when the madness is over.

I know it’s hard lately,
‘Cause we want to be closer,
Just stay strong and safe, 
And I’ll see you when the madness is over. 
I know we’ll start to crave,
To get a little bit closer,
Just stay strong and safe, 
And I’ll see you when the madness is over. 

Yeah I’ll see you when the madness is over. 
And I’ll see you when the madness is over.
