About You Are My Joy

"You Are My Joy" is the first UK single released by Scottish indie rock supergroup The Reindeer Section. It was released on 10 June 2002. This is the only single release currently for The Reindeer Section. The track received airplay from Radio1, Xfm and Virgin, as well as MTV2. The song was also a stand-out track in the set at the Carling Weekend Festival in the summer. Two versions of singles were issued, one under Bright Star Recordings and one under Play It Again Sam Recordings (PIAS). Both versions contained a demo version of the song "Budapest", a finished version of which appeared as track 2 on the album Son of Evil Reindeer. The single release under PIAS additionally contained a remix of You Are My Joy by noted DJ Freelance Hellraiser. The song has been used in two television programs in the United States; one time in the third episode of the hit medical drama Grey's Anatomy, and another in the American adaptation of the UK series Queer as Folk. Accordingly, "You Are My Joy" is included in the latter's Fourth Season soundtrack.

I won't leave you
Out of my will
But I will leave you out
Of my mind, for now

I won't be there to break
Your sweet heart
But not being there
Might break your sweet heart

You are my joy
You are my joy
You are my joy
You are my joy

You are my joy
You are my joy
You are my joy
You are my joy

If I could cradle you
Into my arms
I would cradle you
Tight in my arms, always

So don't be scared
Of all the hurtful words
'Cause in the end
They'll hurt themselves much more

You are my joy
You are my joy
You are my joy
You are my joy

You are my joy
You are my joy
You are my joy
You are my joy

You are my joy
You are my joy
You are my joy
You are my joy

You are my joy
You are my joy
You are my joy
You are my joy

You are my joy
You are my joy
You are my joy
You are my joy

You are my joy
You are my joy
You are my joy
You are my joy

However, in a 2006 interview with Times Online Gary Lightbody did not rule out making a future album. more »
