Sadness and Joy
[YOUNGER NOAH]
I've never seen
Anything so beautiful and so serene
Yet filled with so much darkness that I understand
There are too sides of the same coin
It's sadness and it's joy

[spoken]
Right?

[YOUNGER ALLIE]
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

[YOUNGER NOAH]
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 thеn 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 thе bad
[BOTH]
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

[YOUNGER NOAH]
And making love and babies

[BOTH]
Raising hell and then heaven
It's sadness and it's joy
Sadness and it's joy

[YOUNGER NOAH]
Sadness

[BOTH]
Sadness and it's joy
