(Looking For) A New Joy


A New year rises once again on the horizan...
I've been so many places..
And had so many friends...
I've lost so much and so many ,I can't remember
what I've had....
But I refuse to lose my hope..
I refuse to be meloncholly or sad.../

I've been many things
to so many people....
I've been such an excitable boy...
And while I've often been distracted...
This year...I'm lookin for a New Joy.../

I think this year I'll be lookin for a new joy!
I've partied and turned up until I couldn't see anymore...
I've been the first one at the party
and the last one to leave the floor...
I've been there and I've done that  and now I find...
It don't thrill me anymore...
So I've given up my crown to a new generation...
I'm lookin for something more../

I've been many things
to so many people....
I've been such an excitable boy...
And while I've often been distracted...
This year...I'm lookin for a New Joy.../

I think this year I'll be lookin for a new joy!/


Oh,
I've been so many places..
And had so many friends...
I've lost so much and so many ,I can't remember
what I've had....
But I refuse to lose my hope..
I refuse to be meloncholly or sad.../


I never make resolutions...
because I can't use em...
Always tried to say I was striving for so many things...
 but I'd never do em.../

Eventually..
It being me ...
I'd get around to straightening a few things out...
That the victories were even with the failures..
Tended to leave me somewhat in doubt.....

I've been many things
to so many people....
I've been such an excitable boy...
And while I've often been distracted...
This year...I'm lookin for a New Joy.../

I think this year I'll be lookin for a new joy!/
