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
