Joy
Zach Gill Lyrics

I was footloose like kenny loggins
I used to be free-spirited and carefree like the famous musician Kenny Loggins.

Till i saw the sign like ace of base
Until something caught my attention in a significant manner, like when Ace of Base made their sign.

That one man′s joyful noise
Someone's happy or joyful noise or sound.

Could be another man's bad taste
However, it may not sound good or look good to someone else and may be trashed by others as bad taste or cheesy.

Still i′m faithful just like journey
I am still very devoted and committed, like the famous band Journey.

That you'll want me human league
Hoping that others will still want or accept me, like the band Human League.

Though one man's sentimental
Some people may find certain things or behaviors sentimental or emotional.

Is another man′s cheesy
While others may think about the exact same thing as cheesy or corny.

Deflections of, rejections of
A refusal or denial to acknowledge something or to deflect one's guard.

Projections on a screen
Representations or images of people, things, or ideas on a screen or other projection area.

Hear myself inside myself
Listening to my own thoughts and understanding myself.

And call it harmony
And recognizing it as some sort of peaceful agreement or harmony within oneself.

So goodbye guilty pleasures
I'm letting go of the things that I love but feel guilty about.

But just the guilty parts
It's only the aspects or parts of it that make me feel guilty that I am saying goodbye to.

Baby don′t feel bad about the songs
Don't feel guilty about the music you love...

That put the joy inside your heart
...because they bring you happiness and that's what's important.

Now i'm off the wall like michael jackson
I am wild and daring like Michael Jackson.

But on a prayer like jon bon jov
But at the same time, I put all my faith in the good vibes, like Jon Bon Jovi.

I′m all night long lionel richie
I'm all about the party life like Lionel Richie,'All Night Long'.

But it's my life like billy joel
But it is my own life and nobody else's, like Billy Joel's song.

I′m an island floating in a stream
I feel like a solitary being floating in the middle of the stream.

Like kenny r and dolly p
Like the country legends Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton.

And all I wanna have is fun
All I really want to do is to have fun and enjoy myself.

Like cindy l in '81
Just like singer Cindy Lauper did in the year 1981.

Deflections of, rejections of
Rejection and denial of a particular line of thought.

Projections on a wall
Images, impressions or pictures shown onto a wall or a screen.

Hear yourself inside yourself
You become aware of your true self inside yourself.

And have yourself a ball
And you have a great time with the rest of your life.

So goodbye guilty pleasures
I'm letting go of the things that I love but feel guilty about.

But just the guilty parts
It's only the aspects or parts of it that make me feel guilty that I am saying goodbye to.

Baby don′t feel bad about the songs
Don't feel guilty about the music you love...

That put the joy inside your heart
...because they bring you happiness and that's what's important.

On the road like willie nelson
On the person road filled with adventure like Willie Nelson.

Yet subdivided like geddy lee
Yet, I fear that people will subdivide me, like the famous musician Geddy Lee.

Sometimes a heart it struggles
Often, our hearts face some difficulties or challenges.

With who it thinks it should be
Just like we struggle with who we should be or what we should do in life.

Well come on cowbell don't be coy
Come on, don't be afraid, to have some fun.

It's ok to feel that joy
But it is perfectly fine to enjoy things that bring joy to your life.

You like the sound then sing it out
If you enjoy the sound of something, then go ahead and sing it empowered.

And watch it chase away the doubts
You'll feel lightened after it removes all of the clouded thoughts or uncertainties.

Cause all of it′s just music
Because all of it or any genre of music is simply that, music.

Mixed with memories
Combined with beautiful memories or experiences.

Hear yourself inside yourself
Listen to and connect with yourself internally.

And call it harmony
Experience it as some peaceful and beautiful harmony.

So goodbye guilty pleasures
I'm letting go of the things that I love but feel guilty about.

But just the guilty parts
It's only the aspects or parts of it that make me feel guilty that I am saying goodbye to.

Baby don′t feel bad about the songs
Don't feel guilty about the music you love. . .

That put the joy inside your heart
...because they bring you happiness and that's what's important.
