Freda Payne - You Brought The Joy lyrics

You brought the joy Back into my life Oh you put a prayer Into my life I was drowning in a river of sorrow With no hope and no tomorrow Like a ship I was lost at sea I didn't know my destiny oh oh But like a strong wind darling you came And brought me happiness again I was sinking deeper in doubt 'Til you came and pulled me out oh Each road I took Was always wrong You gave me every chance To belong You brought the joy (you brought the joy) Back into my life Oh you put the hope (yes you did) Into my life My soul was like an empty well Where a drop of rain never fell Like a child who's without a home I'm not baptized and all alone oh oh I had a one way ticket to nowhere At every stop I found despair Like an angel you came to me And laid heaven at my feet oh Each road I took Was always wrong You gave me every chance To belong You brought the joy Back into my life (I wanna thank you) For putting a prayer Into my life You brought the joy (yes you did) Back into my life
