I gave you joy, your best of joy
I am the moon light, you are the spring, our life’s a sacred thing
You know I always will love you, I am forever
I am the one who came when you fell down
I was the only one around (the only one around)
When things will hurt you
I am forever.
Wasn’t it I who said that you are free?
Wonder if it seems so hard to be, and things would hurt you
I am forever, I am forever
We are forever, we are forever
I am a friend through thick and thin
We need each other,
We’ll never part,
Our love is from the heart
We never say, “I don’t need you”
We are forever
I am the one who said that you are free
When it seems so hard to be the only one
And nothing would cheer you
I am forever
Wasn’t it I who carried you around?
When all the words keep turning down
When things would hurt you
I am forever, I am forever
We are forever, we are forever
You are the sun in the Southern sky, when things are shaded
Let go and then we do get back, I was the only one around
When things would hurt you
We are forever, I am forever, we are forever, I am forever
We are forever, … keep on, we are forever, … keep on, have to be strong
We are forever, we are forever, oh right
I am forever, we are forever, I am forever, we are forever, we are forever
I am forever, I am forever.

…Best Of Joy is a timeless piece of Michael's personal feelings he wanted to share with each and every one of us. Michael was always grateful for being able to channel such beautiful lyrics and melodies. MJ would say melodies are ancient, they are in the heavens above waiting to be plucked. When the expressed sound of his imagination felt right he would look at me with a calm smile and say, "It's nice isn't it". Michael Jackson's Joy is Forever…
