Lyrics
She said I'm not goin' back
And she wept from her heart
What is there to say --
Something about a new start?
Platitudes seem hollow and rude.
*Time just stops, but the
paradox clock
keeps tickin' away, tickin away, ticking away
(Last 2 times): I can wish you joy, joy, I can wish you joy...
and there's nothing to say.
Sometimes the only comfort
Is the cold or warm spot
of sheet on your feet.
Words don't make a pillow soft.
I'm lookin' for something to do.
A day, a year, 5 or ten,
It's a roulette-wheel spin
Live neurotically
Or just insanely joyful
The end is how you spin the word...
How you spin the word
Joy, joy, joy, joy
Down in your heart
Joy, joy, joy, joy
Down in your soul
Time just stops but the Paradox Clock
Keeps on tickin away, tickin away, tickin away
And there's nothing, nothing I can say:
I can wish you joy,
Down in your heart
I can wish you joy
Down in your soul
I can sing a song for you
Comfort and joy, joy,
wish you joy, joy
