Phish - Joy lyrics

[Verse 1:] Joy is over there in her incredible clothes She has silver silk shimmering down to her toes I was doing the best that I can I suppose But that little girl dancer eventually grows She grows You can't imagine all the times that I tried To uncover the source of the tears that you cried Let's throw it away and just go for a ride And you'd say ok but you'd keep it inside And I tried [Chorus:] We want you to be happy Don't live inside the gloom We want you to be happy Come step outside your room We want you to be happy Cause this is your song too [Verse 2:] I never thought I could have it so good You were the song that my soul understood But time is a river that flows through the woods And it led us to place we both understood Would be gone Before too long When we were young we thought life was a game But then somebody leaves you and you're never the same All of the places and people belong To the puzzle but one of the pieces is gone And it's you Joy, it's you [Chorus] [Outro:] In time we'll weather this storm Inside together you'll see the change When the sun shines through We want you to be happy Don't live inside the gloom We want you to be happy Come step outside your room We want you to be happy
