Joy
Uh, oh man, I ain't seen you in a long time
Boy, come on in man (hey, how's it going today?)
Sit on down and relax yourself, shoes off
I wanna listen-, I got a song I want you to hear
Boy, this thing is bad
Man, man, I want you to check out this group, okay (is that right?)
But hold on one second, put the needle down right here
Check it out
(Joy)
(Joy)
It's a joy
Joy to be
To be near you
I want you here with me
It's a joy
Joy to be
To be near you
I want you here with me
Lady, can't you see just how much you mean to me
I get a thrill each time I'm near you
I get such a rush, I crave to feel your tender touch
Magic moment paradise, oh, baby
Life is too damn short to let you get away
I'm here to say I need your love, oh, baby
There's no greater pleasure than you give to me
Hear me, baby, I want you to know
It's a joy
Joy to be
To be near you
I want you here with me
It's a joy (it's a joy)
Joy to be
To be near you
I want you here with me
Darling, don't you know, my heart longs to hold you so?
Passion burns inside my mind
You're my fantasy, no other love can set me free
I'm glad to know that you're all mine, mine
Sailing through the night, I'll find the certain pleasures
A million stars feel like the moon, so full of love
Nothin' takes the place of romance since you came
But all we need is you and me, baby (you and me)
It's a joy
Joy to be
To be near you
I want you here with me
It's a joy
Joy to be
I wanna be near you
I want you here with me
It's a joy
Joy to be
To be near you
I, I want you here with me
It's a joy, oh, baby
Joy to be
To be near you
I want you here with me
We're meant to be, and I know we can win
At times, I feel like a kid on a Ferris wheel
You make my world go 'round and around
So much to live for, and I'm livin' it now
Joy
(Yeah)
Joy
(Oh yeah)
Joy
(James, would say, "Uhh")
(Tell me what you like)
Oh, baby
Tell me what you like
(Tell me what you like)
(I wanna be near you)
(So I can feel you)
(Tell me what you like)
Oh, come, let me hold you
Come, let me squeeze you
(Joy)
Joy
(Joy)
Joy to be
Come, let me kiss you
Oh, 'cause I miss you
(It's a Joy)
Joy
(Joy to be)
Oh, let me squeeze you
Oh, let me tease you
(It's a)

Joy to be, yeah

Warm my heart, my soul (I want you here with me)
My everything, I love you, baby

Joy to be (glad you're here with me)
To be near you
Want you here with me
