What Am I Doing? Lyrics by Sal Viviano

Closer Than Ever (2012 Off-Broadway Cast)

0

[MAN 1]
She was such an incredible woman
And one night we both set ourselves free
I could feel all the power inside her
And she seemed to release it to me
Then she suddenly said I can't see her
And the thought of it drove me insane
So I find up a tree I am creeping
To the roof over where she is sleeping
And I sit there all night in the rain

And I'm thinkin'
What am I doin' up on a roof?
What am I doin' out in the rain?
What kind of feelings make a man blind?
What am I doin' out of my mind with love?

[MAN 1, spoken]
And her father and my father are down on the lawn
And thеy're shouting

[MAN 1]
What is he doing up on a roof?
What is he doing out in thе rain?
What kind of feelings make a man blind?
What kind of guy goes outta his mind with love?

I decided that I'd learned my lesson
I rejoined all the sensible men
Now no matter how tempting the woman
I won't ever go crazy again

When I'm safe and alone in my bedroom
Thanking God I'm not shaking and wet
I think back to the night I felt tingles
Holding tight not to slide down the shingles
Feeling feelings I'll never forget

And I wish I was sayin':
What am I doin' up on a roof?
What am I doin' out in the rain?
What kind of feelings make a man blind?
What am I doin' out of my mind with—

What am I doin' tailing her car?
What am I doin' inside her bushes?
What am I doin' covered with mud?
What am I doin' out of my mind with love, with love
What am I doin'?

What am I doin' stealin' her scarf?
What am I doin' sniffin' her perfume?
What am I doin' siftin' her trash?
What am I doin' testin' her doorknob
Dialin' her phone
Tramplin' her tulips
Buggin' her friends
Pettin' her dog?
What am I doin' out of my mind with love?
What am I doin' out of my mind with love?
