Goodbye my beloved one
Cause I have to go
And you don't have to tell a soul
They don't need to know
No one should know

And if you ever see me here again
Than you'll finally know
All the tears you cried in life
Will start to overflow
Tears of joy

Tears of joy
Tears of joy
Tears of joy
Tears of joy

Hello my beloved one
It's been a long, long time
And all that pain we suffered through
Now you can ease your mind
It'll be alright to cry

Tears of joy
Tears of joy
Tears of joy
Tears of joy

And you won't ever have to worry
You can feel my wings in flight
And though I left you in a hurry
Close your eyes and cry

Tears of joy
Tears of joy
Tears of joy
Tears of joy

Good times will come again
And hard times will go
It's the way that life is played
Why, I don't really know
Just take it slow

Tears of joy
Tears of joy
Tears of joy
Tears of joy...
