03:07It's good to sing, man
03:16Thank you so much for having me
03:18It's good to be in the same room as somebody singing
03:19I've been on my own for a year
03:21I know, same
03:22I want another human being
03:26It feels good
03:28That's the good thing about music
03:30You know, you can connect
03:32I mean, electronically
03:34I've been connecting with people throughout the world
03:36But actually sitting in a room with somebody
03:37Is a whole different chemistry
03:40And for me, you gotta imagine
03:42In the pandemic
03:43Like, turning that into a situation
03:45Where I'm sitting next to you
03:46Is a bit crazy
03:47You can understand that
03:48No
03:48Yeah, it is
03:49No
03:50Just so you know
03:50Thank you

04:46From the best
04:48So good
04:52Rolling
04:53You could say
05:06I
05:07Lost my faith
05:08In the Messiah's
05:09Progress
05:11You could say
05:15I lost my belief
05:16In the Holy Church
05:17You could say
05:24I lost my sense
05:26Of direction
05:27You could say
05:34All of this ain't worse
05:35But
05:36If I ever
05:38Lose my faith
05:40In you
05:41There'll be nothing
05:47Left for me
05:49To do
05:50You could say
05:55I was a
05:57Lost man
05:58In a lost world
06:00You could say
06:04I lost my faith
06:06In the people
06:06On TV
06:07You could say
06:14I lost my belief
06:15In our politicians
06:17They all seem like
06:24Game show hosts
06:25To me
06:26If I ever
06:28Lose my faith
06:30In you
06:31There'll be nothing
06:37Left for me
06:39To do
06:40Hey, hey
06:46I could be lost
06:58Inside their lies
07:01Without a trace
07:05But every time
07:07I close my eyes
07:09I see your face
07:14Never saw no
07:16Miracle of science
07:18I didn't go from
07:25A blessing to a curse
07:26Never saw no
07:34Military solution
07:35Didn't always end up
07:43With something worse
07:44But
07:45Let me say
07:47This first
07:49If I ever
07:51Lose my faith
07:54In you
07:55There'll be nothing
08:01Left for me
08:03To do
08:03If I ever
08:10Lose my faith
08:12If I ever
08:14Lose my faith
08:17If I ever
08:19Lose my faith
08:22If I ever
08:23Lose my faith
08:26And you, and you, and you, and you, if I ever lose, if I ever lose, my friend,
08:53if I ever lose, if I ever lose, my friend.
09:23Sister Moon would be my guide, and your blue, blue shadows I would hide.
09:38Ah, good people, sleep tonight, I'm all by myself, in your silver light.
09:50I would give every night, the whole night through, I go out of my mind, but for you.
10:03I'm lying in a mother's arms, the primal root of a woman's charms.
10:21I'm a stranger to the sun, my eyes are too weak, how cold is the heart, when it's warm that you seek.
10:34You watch every night, you don't care what I do, I go out of my mind, but for you.
10:46I go out of my mind, but for you.
10:53My mistress eyes are nothing like the sun.
11:05My hunger for her explains everything I've done.
11:12To holler the moon the whole night through.
11:18And they really don't care if I do.
11:24I go out of my mind, but for you.
11:30Sister Moon..
11:45Sister Moon..
11:47Sister Moon..
11:53Sister Moon..
11:58Awesome.
12:01Wow.
12:02Right.
12:03Cut.
