Sadness And Joy

I've never seen anything so beautiful and so serene
Yet filled with so much darkness that I understand
There are two 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
Then making love with babies
Raising hell and then heaven

It's sadness and it's joy
Sadness and it's joy

It's sadness
Sadness and it's joy
