"You Are My Joy"

"You Are My Joy"

This is love
My darling
There's no denying it

In my responses
I was lying
Wherever you were
I wanted to be with you

Lover of my life
So many times
I wanted to be there
Oh darling

Just to be where
Wherever you were
I wanted to be there with you

The joining of our hearts
Joining of our heads
And with this ring I thee wed
The lover of my life

I'll trust you with my heart, dear
And trust you more when you're not here

I will be your wife
And I will love you, boy
So much more than the rest
I love you, boy
You are my joy

I love so much more than the rest
You are the king
You are the winner

Oh, boy, remember that
You are my joy
I love you so much more than the rest

"You Are My Joy (Reprise)"

"You Are My Joy (Reprise)"

This is love, my darling
Can't you feel it?
When you really had me, concealing
I just can't be that way with you

The light of my life
And you don't even know it
How many ways can I show it
Wherever you are
I wanna be with you, baby

The joining of our hearts
The joining of our heads
With this ring, I thee wed
The love of my life
I trust you with my heart, dear
I trust you more when you're not here

This is your last chance
There'll be no backward glance
Are we on or are we through? [Repeat]

You feel it in your heart
You feel it down in your soul, baby
Oh, yeah

"You'll Never Walk Alone"

"You'll Never Walk Alone"

When you walk through a storm,
Hold your head up high,
And don't be afraid of the dark.
At the end of the storm,
Is the golden sky,
And the sweet silver song of the lark.

Walk on through the wind,
Walk on through the rain,
Though your dreams be tossed and blown,
Walk on, walk on with hope in your heart,
And you'll never walk alone,
You'll never walk alone.
