Joy lyrics

You're like moonlight on the river

And I'm looking for that silver

Whatever it takes

I'm not gonna stop till I have to

It's so tempting to give up now

When the air is getting colder

I say to myself everyone else

Thinks it's over

Well I'm ready to end this game

Cause nothing's gonna make a change

And then you show me kindness

And then you show me laughter

And then you show me joy

Out of nowhere joy

Think I'm too soft to make that killing

And I'm too old for all that wishing

A woman who deals better than me

Could be here now

It's like I'm gathering up my faith

And I haven't felt the sun for days

And then you show me kindness

And then you show me laughter

And then you show me joy

Out of nowhere joy

When I get out of here

I'll find my way back again

I'll likely get lost on the crowded streets

I'll grip with my teeth

I'll weep at somebody's feet

I'll cling to your heart

So when I think of your name

It's for your kindness

And for your laughter

And for your joy

Let me feel that joy
