What am I supposed to do with all these blues?
Haunting me everywhere, no matter what I do
Watching the candle flicker out in the evening glow
I can't let go
When will the night be over?I didn't mean to fall in love with you
And, baby, there's a name for what you put me through
It isn't love, it's robbery
I'm sleeping with _______________________Seen a lot of broken hearts go sailing by
Phantom ships lost at sea and one of them is mine -

Hello
Can you hear me?
Am I getting through to you?
Hello
Is it late there?
There's a laughter on the line

As I walk through the valley where I harvest my grain
I take a look at my wife and realize she's very plain
But that's just perfect for an Amish like me
You know, I shun fancy things like electricity
At 4:30 in the mornin' I'm milkin' cows
Jebediah feeds the chickens and Jacob plows, fool
And I've been milkin' and plowin' so long that
Even Ezekiel thinks that my mind is gone
I'm a man of the land, I'm into discipline
Got a Bible in my hand and a beard on my chin -

We both lie silently still
In the dead of the night
Although we both lie close together
We feel miles apart inside
Was it something I said or something I did?
Did my words not come out right?
Though I tried not to hurt you, though I tried
But I guess that's why they say________________________
Just like every night has its dawn
Just like every cowboy sings a sad, sad song
________________________, yeah, it doesI listen to our favorite song
Playing on the radio -

You think you own whatever land you land on
The earth is just a dead thing you can claim
But I know ev'ry rock and tree and creature
Has a life, has a spirit, has a name
You think the only people who are people
Are the people who look and think like you
But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
You'll learn things you never knew you never knewHave you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned? -

There was a man, a lonely man
Who lost his love through his indifference
A heart that cared, that went unshared
Until it died within his silenceAnd _________'s the only game in town
And every road that takes him, takes him down
And by himself, it's easy to pretend
He'll never love again
And keeping to himself, he plays the game
Without her love, it always ends the same
While life goes on around him everywhere
He's playing _________A little hope goes up in smoke

Part 1: "Build My World"
I'ma do this right!
People talking crazy, think their petty words faze me

Check the setlist homie, you see who wear the crown?
Me mothasucka, fresh off the boat
You doing the most, you looking at the GOAT -

You get a shiver in the dark, it's raining in the park, but meantime
South of the river, you stop n' you hold everything
A band is blowing Dixie, double-four time
You feel all right when you hear that music ringAnd now ya' step inside, but ya' don't see too many faces
Coming in out of the rain to hear the Jazz go down
Competition in other places
Ah, but the horns, they're blowing that soundWay on down south
Way on down south, London Town -

Two hearts were blended

Fading the moon and stars from sight
Recalling always

You fritter and waste the hours
