Picking Blueberries Lyrics

Upon the mountains, where I live
I have a sofa made of bricks
I carried up there, when it was snowing,
when it rained.
I built a house there under the trees
caught a sparrow and set it free
It's up to me, what I do here, what I don't.

I've been picking blueberries all night long
I've been picking blueberries all alone
If you were here, my dear on your own
You would realize everything
Everything you could want, everything's here
Don't you know, I live on the Blueberry Hill
Everything you could think of
Everything's real
Don't you know, I am from the Blueberry Hill

Upon the mountains, where I stay
I have a garden
wouldn't say that it could be true
when all the flowers, they're just like you
I have a sofa made of bricks,
broken clocks I haven't fixed,
but my fingertips and lips, they are blue.

I've been picking blueberries all night long
I've been picking blueberries all alone
You are were, my dear on your own
You would realize everything...

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
