Joy (Takes over me)

You can bet you¡¯re sweeter than ever

And your love is making it better

I can feel it in my bones

Oooh each time we¡¯re alone

Cause I live in ectasy

And my soul refuses sleep

Cause joy, joy takes over me

Through thick and thin I¡¯ll stand

Loving you always

Yes I need you mama

To take the heartache away

I know the sun¡¯s gon¡¯ shine

And as long as you¡¯re mine

It¡¯s joy, joy, joy I feel inside

Your love¡¯s potion

Gives me the notion

To shout out loud

ooh baby baby baby babe

Like a spinning top

I can¡¯t stop

Just loving you

You know Stevie loves you

Needs you baby oh yeahYou know my love is sure to live

Aint goin¡¯ nowhere

And I do believe girl

You were meant for me

Cause I live in ectasy

And my soul refuses sleep

Cause joy, joy takes over me

Oh baby joy

Joy, joy, joy, joy

joy joy joy joy joy joy

The way you love me joy

Takes over me

Oh the way you love me

The way you need me

Baby please don¡¯t leave me

I get joy.
