Joy

Oh
Hey, hey, hey
There is a joy in a sweet word that's been spoken
And the joy in a dream that's come true
There's a joy that I get when I'm watching you baby, hey
And the joy that I get watching the skies of blue
And then there's a joy,
Oh my darling, of a crying baby
And the joy of a child that's born to you
Then there's a joy of a beautiful lady and the joy of the morning dew
It's something like the joy of loving you baby
Joy of dancin' too
It's something like the joy of lovin' you baby, yeah
Joy of being with you
Oh my darling, I'll overcome the darkest nights
Just to see your love's allright
I've got a love to give
You know I love to live
There's something 'bout the joy of lovin' you baby [Repeat]
Joy, Joy...
