Joy is over there in her incredible clothes |
|
She has silver silk shimmering down to her toes |
|
I was doing the best that |
|
I can, I suppose |
|
But that little girl dancer eventually grows, she grows |
|
You can't imagine all the times that |
|
I triedTo uncover the source of the tears that you cried |
|
Let's throw it away and just go for a ride |
|
And you'd say okay but you'd keep it inside |
|
And I tried, |
|
I tried, I tried, |
|
I triedWe want you to be happy, don't live inside the gloom |
|
We want you to be happy, come step outside your room |
|
We want you to be happy 'cause this is your song too |
|
I never thought |
|
I could have it so good |
|
You were the song that my soul understood |
|
That time is a river that flows through the woods |
|
And it led us to places we both understood |
|
Would be gone before too long, would be gone before too long |
|
When we were young we thought life was a game |
|
But then somebody leaves you and you're never the same |
|
All of the places and people belong to the puzzle |
|
But one of the pieces is gone and it's you |
|
It's you, it's you, |
|
Joy, it's you |
|
We want you to be happy, don't live inside the gloom |
|
We want you to be happy, come step outside your room |
|
We want you to be happy 'cause this is your song too |
|
In time we'll weather this storm inside together |
|
You'll see the change when the sun shines through |
|
We want you to be happy, don't live inside the gloom |
|
We want you to be happy, come step outside your room |
|
We want you to be happy 'cause this is your song too |
|
This is your song too, this is your song too |
|
This is your song too, this is your song too |
|
This is your song too |
