lyrics
I WANT JOY (© Marjorie Cardwell)
Wand'ring through this love of ours
Sometimes we chance to meet.
One on foot one in a car,
No turning on this street.
Art and nature do conspire
To keep me acting kind.
God and man are on the wire,
Persuasion on their mind.
Happiness happens, but I want joy,
I want joy, I want joy.
Happiness happens, but I want joy.
Were they only lies I bought,
And was it me that lied?
I can never face the thought
A pure thing has died.
I'm a very passionate fish,
Swimming in your tears.
How I long and how I wish
For you to feel my fears.
Happiness happens, but I want joy,
I want joy, I want joy.
Happiness happens, but I want joy.
Turn back the clock to when the feeling wasn't sinking
Put me in the dock and see what I was thinking
Happiness happens, but I want joy,
I want joy, I want joy.
Happiness happens, but I want joy.
Happiness happens, but I want joy,
I want joy, I want joy.
Happiness happens, but I want joy.
Wand'ring through this love of ours
Sometimes we chance to meet.
One on foot one in a car,
No turning on this street.
Art and nature do conspire
To keep me acting kind.
God and man are on the wire,
Persuasion on their mind.
Happiness happens, but I want joy,
I want joy, I want joy.
Happiness happens, but I want joy.
Were they only lies I bought,
And was it me that lied?
I can never face the thought
A pure thing has died.
I'm a very passionate fish,
Swimming in your tears.
How I long and how I wish
For you to feel my fears.
Happiness happens, but I want joy,
I want joy, I want joy.
Happiness happens, but I want joy.
Turn back the clock to when the feeling wasn't sinking
Put me in the dock and see what I was thinking
Happiness happens, but I want joy,
I want joy, I want joy.
Happiness happens, but I want joy.
Happiness happens, but I want joy,
I want joy, I want joy.
Happiness happens, but I want joy.

Mistaken & Misplaced
by Pete CarrThis was my favourite album of 2012. And probably 2013 and 2014 too! The Beatlesque songs, singing and playing are human, memorable and I never tire of them.

Whirligig!
by The Cherry BluestormsThe Cherry Bluestorms's latest release is beautiful, and... it has a song about Roy Wood, a Cardwell family fave! Don't miss its lovely coda, and also the melodic majesty of Seven League Boots.
