Joy De Viva

She wiped the smile right off my face And hid it away in a secret place The night was dark and the ground was cold I slipped myself into a pool I saw the trees but not the wood And floated in an icey flood As cold began to freeze my heart I heared a voice come through the dark Bring up the coals Light up the fire Joy de viva Joy de viva Smile your shining smile on me If you see her Say I need her Joy de viva Joy de viva Now sunburned men tell tales of me Of how I sail the ocean deep Upon the brow I shade my face Searching for that sate of grace Every night the moon appears She shows me that I need not fear The crashing rocks and siren wind And I will find her in the end Then I will run Into her fire
