I've lost my  "J"
I've lost my  "O"
I've lost my  "Y"
Don't you know

I've let recent
Circumstance
Dictate to
My song and dance

The Joy that
I once had
In a "****"
Up and left

I miss the  "J"
I miss the  "O"
I miss the  "Y"
That held me close

I used to wake up
In mid-smile
Ain't seen that smile
In quite a while

With no more  "J"
And no more  "O"
There's no more  "Y"
For me to hold

I hope and pray
That one day
My lost Joy
Will come back this way
And my life can convince it
this time to stay
