[Verse 1]
Over time, I've been building my castle of love
Just for two, though you never knew you were my reason
I've gone much too far for you now to say
That I've got to throw my castle away

[Chorus]
And though you don't believe that they do
They do come true
For did my dreams
Come true when I looked at you
And maybe too, if you would believe
You too might be
Overjoyed, over loved, over me

[Outro Chorus]
And though the odds say improbable
What do they know
For in romance
All true love needs is a chance
And maybe with a chance you will find
You too like I'm
Overjoyed, over loved, over you
Over you

[Outro dialogue]
Thank you so much
I just wanna thank you for coming
And being a part of, just, the creation of...
I'm playing, I'm sorry
Now, this next fella
If you've done music in the last 30 years
You have to be influenced by him
And I'm gonna need a little help on this one
Y'all ready?
