Joy Like This/Love Like That
This high energy pop chart reminiscent of a Mariah Carey hit sings the praises of the intoxicating emotions of joy and love. The lyrics are intentionally open-ended and could refer to self-love, romantic love, or spiritual love. Infused with a 1970's funk/disco groove and gospel vocal writing, this song works equally well as a closer or opener. Features a short alto solo for the first verse.

It’s the sun risin’ up into a clear blue sky A last second game winning goal Dancin’ in the street, getting swept off my feet By somebody who ignites my soul It’s raining, it’s pouring, it’s life restoring It’s a ticker tape parade It’s the smile on a clown, it’s a night out on the town Dressed up to the nines, lookin’ so fine The only thing that can make me feel Joy like this is a love like that I gotta sing 'cause I can’t conceal I got joy like this from a love like that Joy, feelin' crazy joy A symptom of this love I found Joy, feelin' crazy joy It makes me wanna get up And spread it all around ‘Cause I got a love that stands above Every other thing in this world And it is the only thing I know To be completely real There is no need to pretend No need to defend No reason to hide anymore I know this for sure It’s the greatest gift of my life You know I'll never let go of the thing that can make me feel Joy like this -- an everlasting love! I gotta sing 'cause I can’t conceal I got joy like this from a love, 'Cause I got a love, a love like that!
