Description
I wrote this song a few years ago but have never gotten around to recording a full band version. This is another acoustic version of a song I would describe as a song of hope with sad undertones of real life.
Lyrics
Another day goes by, hear the children cry, see another family with no home All I want to do, is help a few, we all should before too long If there's no joy in your heart baby If there's no joy in your heart If there's no joy in your heart don't worry There's enough for both of us in mine Where we used to play in our younger days, is a parking lot and broken down old store Wasn't long ago, it was safe you know, to let the world inside your door If there's no joy in your heart baby If there's no joy in your heart If there's no joy in your heart don't worry There's enough for both of us in mine If this mad world makes you run aground May the light that shines within you make you brave I'm not saying we can change the world But if we don't start somewhere we're just digging our own grave All the people here, taught to live in fear, and in the sand bury our heads Got to lead the way, got to make a change Show our children how the love is spread If there's no joy in your heart baby If there's no joy in your heart If there's no joy in your heart don't worry There's enough for both of us in mine If there's no joy in your heart baby If there's no joy in your heart If there's no joy in your heart don't worry There's enough for both of us in mine
