"Joy" lyrics

"Joy"

In love in a big way
I'll sing you how it is, child
Rainfall pure on a mountainside
River flow pure down to the sea
Straight up plain and simple, girl
Two minds, two mouths, two hearts
Look wide-eyed at the mountainside
And make the water flow to the sea

We hail a cab to the city
I hold you in the backseat, girl
And the driver's a cowboy with a wife and children
And his meter don't tick when he tells his tale

Right then you are, you are, you are, you are
Joy to live with
Yeah, you are, you are, you are, you are
Joy to live with
Hey, you are, you are, you are, you are
Joy to live with
And to behold
And to be holding you

In love in the big city
I'll sing you how it is again, child
Rainfall pure on a mountainside
River flow pure down to the sea
It's straight up plain and simple, girl
Two minds, two mouths, two hearts
Look wide-eyed at the mountainside
And make the water flow to the sea

Everywhere since I have been with you in spirit
Though miles and years apart
I'm still holding onto you, child

And you are, you are, you are, you are
Joy to live with
Yeah, you are, you are, you are, you are
Joy to live with
Hey, you are, you are, you are, you are
Joy to live with
And to behold

And in that mundane moment
I turn and there you are
Framed in pink sundown sky
You're so soft but the city's so hard
You're so soft but the city's so hard

Everywhere since I have been with you in spirit
Although miles and years apart
I'm still holding onto you, child

And you are, you are, you are, you are
Joy to live with
Yeah, you are, you are, you are, you are
Joy to live with
Hey, you are, you are, you are, you are
Joy to live with
You are, you are, you are, you are
Joy to live with

Yeah, you are joy to live with...
And you are joy to live with...
Yeah, you - you are joy to live with
And you are jumping joy to live with
And to be holding you now, love
