Joy by Tracey Thorn

Joy Lyrics

[00:14.22] When someone very dear
[00:17.11] Calls you with the words "everything's all clear "
[00:22.12] That's what you want to hear
[00:25.39] But you know it might be different in the New Year
[00:29.77] That's why, that's why we hang the lights so high
[00:39.05] Joy, Joy, Joy, Joy,
[00:52.64] You loved it as a kid, and now you need it more than you ever did
[01:00.51] It's because of the dark; we see the beauty in the spark
[01:09.25] That's why, that's why the carols make you cry
[01:17.80] Joy, Joy, Joy, Joy Joy, Joy, Joy, Joy
[01:48.98] Tinsel on the tree, yes I see
[01:52.76] The holly on the door, like before
[01:57.38] The candles in the gloom, light the room
[02:01.84] The Sally Army band, yes I understand
[02:20.99] So light the winds of fire,
[02:27.92] And watch as the flames grow higher
[02:28.05] We'll gather up our fears
[02:28.06] And face down all the coming years
[02:37.01] All that they destroy
[02:41.45] And in their face we throw our
[02:46.25] Joy, Joy, Joy, Joy
[03:00.13] It's why, we hang the lights so high
[03:06.78] And gaze at the glow of silver birches in the snow
[03:13.94] Because of the dark, we see the beauty in the spark
[03:20.49] We must be alright, if we could make up Christmas night.
[03:36.42]
