lyrics

I recall you had eyes just like mine
Leaving your memory took so little time
Only the joy passed through
Only the joy passed through

Glow through the panes
Dust on the glass
Light filled the room where I saw you last
Let only the joy pass through
Only the joy pass through

You won’t remember your arms outstretched
All I had to offer was a way to forget
I can’t wait
I can’t wait
I can’t wait until
Only the joy passed through
Only the joy passed through
Only the joy
Only the joy

Leaving the country, if I ran too fast
I lingered at the entrance where I saw you last
Only the joy passed through
Only the joy passed through

You might have loved me, if I gave you the chance
Repeating the moment the die was cast
I won’t rest
I won’t rest
I won’t rest until
Only the joy passed through
Only the joy
Only the joy passed through
Only the joy
