lyrics

Up in the sky I can see the sun
It stings my eyes, they burn they run
There's a bitter taste of salt on my tongue
I know that it comes from tears of joy

I got a song deep down in my soul
It makes me weep out of control
The drums pound way down in the hole
Don't you know they rock and roll
With tears of joy

Up come a cloud and down comes the rain
To wash away my sins but it leaves a stain
That's tattooed on my heart like a watermark
It's the sweet, sweet pain from those tears of joy

I know that I'm not alone
That every dog chews down to the bone
It's the sticks and stones, when we get grown
That make us cry those tears of joy

You've got a roof up over your head
And a soft place to make your bed
you better hope and pray that before you are dead
That you've got the guts to let yourself shed those tears of joy.
