Joy
P/D(B) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

So please just stay with me
Didn't know you were the key
To my heart, to my heart
So please just stay with me
Didn't know you were the key
To my heart, to my heart
We've always been through tough times
Never realised you were there thought you were telling lies, yeah
'Bout to unfold my story
We're walking around circles no path to glory
So please remember the times we talked till noon
When you went to my house after midnight
Thought this dream with you wouldn’t end soon
But your behaviour was anything but pride
Fuck, my heads going wild
But you don't care too busy fucking other dudes
You behave like a child
Pretty to look at but with no atittude
You made me suffer the worst
Torturing me made it look like rehearsed
Didn't reply to my text
Now I'm proud to call you my fucking ex
Please just stay with me
Didn't know you were the key
To my heart, to my heart
So please just stay with me
Didn't know you were the key
To my heart, to my heart
Hold up, found someone new get lost
I'm feeling loved again
Listen up, thought I did a mistake but guess not
He is better for me so stop it, please
Can't find the words but I feel relieved
Countless days, countless nights
Been on your side still don't see your light
Hear me when I sing to you my ex he was a fucking fool
I feel grateful thank you
My dearest one I sing for us two
Everything that I need I have so next
Proud to call you my fucking ex
Please just stay with me
Didn't know you were the key
To my heart, to my heart
So please just stay with me
Didn't know you were the key
To my heart, to my heart
I need you right next to me
Without you I feel fucking empty
Can't live without you, can't live without you
You're the only one I need right now
There can't be a question how
You are irreplaceable I know that it's true
So please just stay with me
Didn't know you were the key
To my heart, to my heart
So please just stay with me
Didn't know you were the key
To my heart, to my heart
So please just stay with me
Didn't know you were the key
To my heart, to my heart
So please just stay with me
Didn't know you were the key
To my heart, to my heart
Please just stay with me
Didn't know you were the key
To my heart, to my heart
So please just stay with me




Didn't know you were the key
To my heart, to my heart

Overall Meaning

The song "Joy" by P/D(B) is a heartfelt confession about the importance of a past relationship. The singer realizes that their former partner was the key to their heart, though they didn't recognize it at the time. They reminisce about the good times spent together, but also call out the ex's hurtful behavior and inability to commit. The chorus begs for the ex to come back and stay with the singer, as they feel empty and incomplete without them. However, the bridge reveals that the singer has found someone new who makes them feel loved and grateful, and they sing a message of appreciation for both their ex and their current partner.


The lyrics paint a relatable picture of hindsight bias, where we only see the value of something or someone after they are gone. The verses also touch on themes of self-worth and toxic relationships, as the singer realizes that their ex was not treating them with respect or care. The chorus displays vulnerability and the common human desire for love and companionship. Overall, the song speaks to the complexity and messiness of relationships, and how they can leave lasting impacts on us.

MsGlamour4Ever

Great review Morgan! The bag is beautiful and you chose a stunning color ❤️

Morgan Britt Butler

Thank you 💜 I have to say picking this color is to my love’s credit. I was between this and the bright pink and he said “enough pink. You have been looking for purple.” I’m so glad I went for this purple because it’s one of my favorite bags in my collection now
