Joy and Elation
Joy and elation
Evaporate my frustration
Late night calls with an old relation
Have me feeling like I'm under sedation
I can't explain this feeling
It's my heart that she is stealing
My joy rises to the ceiling
I can't help but want her around
We can simply just lay down
And not have to make a sound
My heart and mind are at peace
The way she smells puts me at ease
I simply can't explain it
The darkest corners of my mind, she keeps lit
She doesn't even have to try
And this I wonder why
How can someone make me feel this way
After my heart has led me astray
Time and time again
I tell myself the last one was the end
Of my being able to love
But this feeling away she simply shoved
But for now I keep my love at bay
For I'm afraid she won't want to stay
Her heart belongs to another
But all he does is drag her under
And her heart this "man" has plundered
And so she is afraid to love another
But I'll be there to pick up the pieces
I hope that she will see this
I will be there day or night
Even if I am far away and out of sight
I hope to bring her joy and elation
And to evaporate her frustration
Just as she does for me
I simply want her to see
The man that I can be
That I can take her to new heights
And bring happiness into her sights
I can lift her up when she is down
And make a smile out of her frown
If only she would just give me that chance
I could make her heart sing and dance
With joy and elation
And I could evaporate her frustration.
