I had joy and I was strong

and I was good at holding on

and I had heart and I had soul

and if I wanted to I could even make it snow

anytime

Did I look desperate to you

or did it look like I knew what I was doing

well all that is true

but as the days get longer

I can't remember

ifI'm getting worse or getting better

at playing this part

now where did it start

I had joy and I was strong

and I was good at holding on

and I had heart and I had soul

and if I wanted to I could even make it snow

anytime

Did I run circles around your heart

it was a private mission

it's an old tradition

that I cannot stop

'cause if I do they'll catch me and they'll never let me

keep my secret weapon hidden in the bedroom

at the top of the stairs

man, I hope it's still there

I had joy and I was strong

and I was good at holding on

and I had heart and I had soul

and if I wanted to I could even make it snow

anytime

All I wanna do is run

all I wanna do is fly

I've been saved so many times

just from staring at the sky

I'm still staring at the sky

and I'll never understand

why

I know my way through these woods

and though the paths have faded

and the trees have shaded

where my heart once stood still

I still feel it beating

all the years mean nothing

I am still believing

I can see the touching

of my soul and the sun

I close my eyes and I've won

I had joy and I was strong

and I was good at holding on

and I had heart and I had soul

and if I wanted to I could even make it snow

anytime

oh where did that little girl go

I need to find her

I need to find her so I can get through this show

do you know?
