Your Joy Lyrics - 1182449289 - Chrisette Michele

Walk down the sidewalk 

Staring at your feet 

Wishing my steps were longer 

So by your sides I could keep 

Hold your hand much bigger 

Never wanted mine to grow 

So I could always fit perfect 

Inside your palms just so 

No one loves me just like you do 

No one knows me just like you do 

No one can compare to the way my eyes fit in yours 

You'll always be my father, oh 

And I'll always be your joy 

Laid me on your belly 

Nights when mama wasn't home 

Lightning made me shiver 

And you never let me feel alone 

I tried to match your breathing 

Beating my little heart against yours 

Perfect were the nights we were sleeping 

I never want to end what we are 

'Cause no one loves me just like you do 

And no one knows me just like you do 

No one can compare to the way my eyes fit in yours 

You'll always be my father, oh, oh 

And I'll always be your joy 

One day he'll come on bended knee 

And ask my love away from me 

And when I give my love to him 

He'll always have a place within 

One day he'll come on bended knee 

And ask my love away from me 

And when I give my love to him 

You'll always have a place within 

No one loves me just like you do 

No one knows me just like you do 

No one can compare to the way my eyes fit in yours 

You'll always be my father 

And I'll always be your joy
