Below, you will find the lyrics for Joy by Bastille.
Verse 1
Thought i'd never be waking on the kitchen floor
But here i lie, not the first time
Now my morning has broken, and it brings the fear
My mind's falling, fall in
Chorus 1
Then i feel my pulse quickening
But regrets can't change anything
Yeah, i feel my pulse quickening
When your name lights up the screen
Joy, when you call me
I was giving up, i was giving in
Joy, set my mind free
I was giving up, i was giving in
How d'you always know when i'm down?
How d'you always know when i'm down?
Verse 2
Take a walk through the wreckage, clearing out my head
I hear your eyes roll right down the phone
I'm your walking disaster, keep on dragging me
From self-pity, poor me
Chorus 2
Then i feel my pulse quickening
But i wouldn't change a thing
Joy, when you call me
I was giving up, i was giving in
Joy, set my mind free
I was giving up, i was giving in
How d'you always know when i'm down?
How d'you always know when i'm down?
Bridge
As the night dissolves into this final frame
You're a sweet relief, you saved me from my brain
From my brain, from my brain, from my brain
Chorus 3
Joy, when you call me
I was giving up, i was giving in
Joy, set my mind free
I was giving up, i was giving in
How d'you always know when i'm down?
How d'you always know when i'm down?
Outro
I feel joy when you call me
I feel joy when you call me
I feel joy when you call me
I feel joy when you call me
How d'you always know when i'm down?
How d'you always know when i'm down?
