You do it for the joy it brings 

Because you're a joyful girl 

Because the world owes me nothing 

And we owe each other the world 

I do it cause it's the least I can do 

I do it cause I learned it from you 

I do it just because I want to 

Just because I want to... 



Everything I do is judged 

And mostly they get it wrong Oh well 

The bathroom mirror has not budged 

And the woman who lives there can tell The truth from the stuff that they say 

And she looks me in the eye 

And says... 

Would you prefer it the easy way? 

No? 

Well, okay then ...

Don't cry 



I wonder if everything I do 

I do instead 

Of something I want to do more 

The question fills my head 

I know there's no grand plan here 

This is just the way it goes 

When everything else seems unclear 

I guess at least I know 

You do it for the joy it brings 

Because you'e a joyful girl 

Because the world owes me nothing 

And we owe each other the world 

I do it, it's the least I can do 

I do it, I learned it from you you I do it just because I want to Just because I want to...
