Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You're like moonlight on the river
And I'm looking for that silver
Whatever it takes
I'm not gonna stop 'til I have to
[Verse 2]
It's so tempting to give up now
When the air is getting colder
I say to myself
Everyone else thinks it's over
[PreChorus]
Well, I'm ready to end this game
'Cause nothing's gonna make a change
[Chorus]
And then you show me kindness
And then you show me laughter
And then you show me joy
Out of nowhere
Joy
[Verse 3]
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
[PreChorus]
It's like I'm gathering up my faith
But I haven't felt the sun for days
And days
[Chorus]
And then you show me kindness
And then you show me laughter
And then you show me joy
Out of nowhere
Joy
[Bridge]
When they take me from 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
[Chorus]
It's for your kindness
And for your laughter
And for your joy
Let me feel that joy
Let me feel that joy
