This is a glorious madness 
This is madness of the heart 
You got me whirling on a moonlit planet
The shape of a blue marble
 
My friends say my behavior's frenzied
Will this madness stop? 
Yes, this feels like being possessed
And my mind is blown with this crazy love
Will the madness stop?
I'm in a state of confusion, I can't think straight

This is delirium and illusion 
When will the madness stop?
Just, just put me in a straight jacket
I don't want this madness to stop 
I'm on this ride until the end 
And I say, "Who wants to stop a merry-go-round?"

Most times you want it to go faster
Most times you want it to go faster
Most times you want it to go faster
Most times you want it to go faster

This is a glorious madness 
This is madness of the heart 
You got me whirling on a moonlit planet
The shape of a blue marble
I used to feel unsure, unsure of everything 
I wanted proof of life and then you came along
Everyday a new story 
Every story has a twist and every twist brings a new adventure 

We won't bother to say we're sorry
we won't bother to explain 
That we still believe in magic 
and we're living a fairytale 

This is delirium and illusion 
When will the madness stop?
Just, just put me in a straight jacket
I don't, I don't want this madness to stop 
I'm on this ride until the end 
And I say, "Who wants to stop a merry-go-round?"

Most times you want it to go faster
Most times you want it to go faster
Most times you want it to go faster
Most times you want it to go faster
Most times you want it to go faster
Most times you want it to go faster
Most times you want it to go faster
Most times you want it to go faster

This is a glorious madness 
This is madness of the heart 
You got me whirling on a moonlit planet
The shape of a blue marble

This is a glorious madness 
This is madness of the heart 
You got me whirling on a moonlit planet
The shape of a blue marble

This is a glorious madness 
This is madness of the heart 
You got me whirling on a moonlit planet
The shape of a blue marble
