Joshua Perahia - Tears Of Joy Lyrics

Northbound train just left for heaven, down by station 49
I see the skyline rise above my window
It looks like faces in the sun
And I do believe I hear the angels cry

Compromises, they get the best of you
Life is such a mystery
Well I'm never, never, never gonna leave you -no
Heartache, but I guess it's just my time, baby

I cry for the sunshine
And I found sweet love from above
Now everyone needs a little sunshine
But the rain keeps comin' down
And there ain't no way to stop it now, so

Cry those tears of joy
Let 'em roll on down my face,
'Cause it's love that's been my saving grace
Cry those tears of joy
Sweet surrender, my baby
'Cause love is gonna find your way back home

Oh-maybe someday, someday soon
I'm gonna see you smile a little while, precious child
I'm gonna see you smile

It's been so long now baby
Lord knows how much I miss you
And I still, I still reach out from where I am
To receive your precious kiss
Yeah!

I cried for the sunshine
And I found sweet love from above
Everyone needs, everyone needs a little sunshine
But the rain keeps coming down
And there ain't no way to stop it now, so

Cry those tears of joy
Let 'em roll on down my face,
'Cause it's love that's been my saving grace
Cry those tears of joy
Sweet surrender, my baby
'Cause love is gonna guide your way back home,
To the promised land where I wait with open arms
And we share eternity
I walked around so long without your sweet caress
Come and hold me now
Come and hold me…

Cry those tears of joy
Let 'em roll on down my face,
'Cause it's love that's been my saving grace
Sweet surrender, Oh my baby
Everything is for you,
My Lord
