Joy

Me and fear we had a thing in 1993 Told me I was wasting time with all these silly dreams I dated doubt she knocked me down every time I tried But I found joy in my life Sorrow swept me off my feet in 2009 I took long walks on the beach next to the oceans that we cried And grief she came and overstayed way longer than I'd liked But I found joy in my life I found joy yeah she opened up my eyes And gave me wings and halo rings and taught me how to fly Woo ooh I feel like a million lights I found joy in my life And got me like yeah oh I found joy in my life And got me like yeah oh I found joy in my life Pressure pushed me to the edge she worked me to the bone And jealousy she lied to me said I needed things I don't Shame she had a way to make me hate myself inside But I found joy in my life I found joy on the loneliest of nights I bought a rock I tied the knot and I'm making her my wife Woo ooh I feel like a million lights I found joy in my life And got me like yeah oh I found joy in my life And got me like yeah oh I found joy in my life And there were days I did not know If she would pack her bags and go But that's my girl forever though And she knows she knows I found joy and I kiss her every night She gave me two more of her and I can't believe they're mine Mmm now I'm basking in their light I found joy I found joy Yeah oh I found joy in my life And got me like yeah oh I found joy in my life I found joy in my life
