[ Featuring John Cardoza ]
I've never seen
Anything so beautiful and so serene
Yet filled with so much darkness that I understand
There are too sides of the same coin
It's sadness and it's joy
Right?
I never knew
That I would find someone who sees the things I do
As really beautiful and meaningful and brand new
But you understand it's not a choice
It's sadness and it's joy
It's sadness and it's joy
It's sadness and it's joy
How do you do all of this with these hands?
With these hands
I'll never truly begin to understand
But I do know that it's sadness and it's joy, it's light and then it's dark
It's Christmas morning down the stairs, it's waiting for a spark
It's low and then it's high, it's good inside the bad
It's loving when it's hard to love and laughing when it's sad
It's fighting then making up and fighting all again
And making love and babies
Raising hell and then heaven
It's sadness and it's joy
Sadness and it's joy
Sadness
Sadness and it's joy
