Your Joy - 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
And I'll always be your joy

Lay 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 loves 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
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
