JOY

Joy is glee in an autumn tree

Joy is ecstasy at feeling free

Joy is bliss in a lover’s kiss

Joy is cheer in a happy tear

Bridge

I don’t feel it anymore

I don’t feel it anymore

Chorus

Who am I now?

I cannot feel joy

The real McCoy

How do I allow?

Joy is contentment without resentment

Joy is delight of mountain height

Joy is elation from a recent vacation

Joy is rapture in a love to capture

Bridge

I don’t feel it anymore

I don’t feel it anymore

Chorus

Who am I now?

I cannot feel joy

The real McCoy

How do I allow?

Joy is what you make it

Joy is yours so take it
