The Notebook - Sadness and Joy Lyrics

2024 Broadway
The Notebook the Musical - Sadness and Joy Lyrics

The song is written by Ingrid Michaelson.

YOUNGER NOAH:
I've never seen
Anything so beautiful and so serene
Yet filled with so much darkness
That I understand
There are too sides of the same coin
It's sadness and it's joy

(spoken)
Right?

YOUNGER ALLIE:
I never knew
That I would find someone
Who sees the things I do
As really beautiful
And meaningful and brand new
But you understand it's not a choice
It's sadness and it's joy
It's sadness and it's joy
It's sadness and it's joy

YOUNGER NOAH:
How do you do all of this with these hands?
With these hands
I'll never truly begin to understand
But I do know that it's sadness and it's joy,
It's light and thеn it's dark
It's Christmas morning down the stairs,
It's waiting for a spark
It's low and then it's high,
It's good inside thе bad

BOTH:
It's loving when it's hard to love
And laughing when it's sad
It's fighting then making up
And fighting all again

YOUNGER NOAH:
And making love and babies

BOTH:
Raising hell and then heaven
It's sadness and it's joy
Sadness and it's joy

YOUNGER NOAH:
Sadness

BOTH:
Sadness and it's joy
