Joy Lyrics - Singles - Brandon Rogers

Long ago 

There was this pretty young thing from across the way 

We used to go 

To and fro, home and school about every day, but? 

Closest thing we ever had to a date 

Was the time we spent together being late 

Walking down the hall on our way to homeroom 

But we were really young back then 

So I guess I never noticed the time she took 

To brush her hair and fix her clothes to make sure she looked 

Like a princess everyday for me and 

She was waiting for me 

To do something 

But I did nothing 

Cause I was too blind to see 

That I was just a boy and 

She was my joy 

Everything that I could need 

She was so much more 

Wonder if I?ll ever see her (Knock, Knock) 

Knocking at my door 

She was my joy? 

Joy?.Joy?Joy?Joy 

I Wish I could 

Go back in time and treat her a little better 

Because I would? 

Maybe tell her how I feel; I could put it in a letter saying 

?J-O-why because I like you,? 

?A-be-see me in the yard after school? 

And I?d hold her close 

Maybe give her my coat if it was cold outside 

But we were really young back then 

And I guess I never noticed the time she took 

To brush her hair and fix her clothes to make sure she looked 

Like a princess everyday for me and 

She was waiting for me 

To do something 

But I did nothing 

Cause I was too blind to see 

Joy (cont?d) 

That I was just a boy and 

She was my joy 

Chorus 

Bridge 

It was so long ago 

But I still see it like yesterday 

We were walking alone 

You were singing a song 

I had my chance 

I let it pass 

And I?ll never get it back again 

I wonder how you?ve been my friend 

I can?t help but think about what could?ve been 

Would our lives be the same 

A whole world of difference 

From one tiny change 

I don?t know what I?d give up 

I don?t know if you?d live up 

To my great expectations 

Of you? 

Chorus
