Then you say [chorus] what you want, what you wish, what you crave you've saved for more than this John & Junior what you've giv'n, how you pray, what this means, what awaits you more than John & Junior Go on, accuse me of existing in a castle Go on and say I’ll be finally woken and broken When I’m Sorely disappointed with how life really is How the "real" world is.... but don't you see? You call me a dreamer and I'll call you comfortable While I'm on my adventure you’ll be safe with your ego and your're Hiding beneath the skin of an unlearned warrior Oh, God, he makes being lost looks so good and "so good" is Better than nothing at all But worse than the best will fail, and i'm still waiting..but you keep saying my child [chorus] Oh, if you count, it'll go by so slow But if I try then, maybe, I could follow what I know and why i'm waiting.....

But I wonder if you're okay Find me in the evening When you're ready to dance and I will take you to the places Where you never thought you'd had a chance To love, love Love is all we have I will run myself in circles here without you I will run myself in circles here without you Oh I tried and tried And I can't hide from your love Darling it's too late To show me your intentions And I will go to find a way To get pass all the implications Every situation, every complication That we've come from Love is all we have I will run myself in circles here without you Darling love....love Love is all we have I will run myself in circles here without you[/SIZE][/FONT][/I] ~ Joy's Discography ~ <Coming soon next year: Insert new album cover from Bethany Joy here.> Why We Love Bethany Joy Lenz: 1.

Let Me Count The Ways: Only one part of her talent is acting (between) her singing and love of musical theatre. She's going to be a huge star. Paul Johansson Joie. Joie. I love her, man. She’s my best friend down here. But she lives on Joypiter. Hilarie Burton Her name is Joie, we call her Joybutter. She’s from somewhere very far away and we thank God every day that they sent her here because she is so unique and so just from any person I’ve ever met. You know, at first we were all like, Joie, she’s different. And then we realized, Oh my God, this girl’s like the coolest. She can do anything. She’s got wild ideas, and she’s just a fun, fun person to hang out with. So when we were all divvying up things to do for the game, you know, Chad and James were playing, Sophia was a team mom, I was a team mom, and a cheerleader. I’m like what can Joie do? Duh, sing. Hilarie Burton Joie’s got the most beautiful voice I’ve ever heard. You know, she’s gotta record an ablum, she’s gotta be on Broadway. Broadway’s like her dream. And so it’s only a matter of time before that happens. Cause I just feel that she’s one of those people who’s way too good to be down here with us. And so Joie said, ‘Fine, I’ll sing,’ and I was trying to find somebody to play a guitar on set last week and nobody was really biting, and so Joie disappeared and apparently Joie went off and taught herself how to play her own rendition of the national anthem on guitar. So, she’s running late and I’m calling her, I’m like, ‘Joie, dude they’re holding the game, where are you?’ She’s like, ‘I’m five minutes away. I’ll be there.’ Next thing you know, ‘Alright, give it up for Bethany Joy Lenz.’ Joy had run from her car, she had just left it in the parking lot, ran with her guitar, propped herself up on the side of a deck. Like she didn’t even get a real chair or a stool. Her leg was all cropped up underneath her. And sets the notebook down and just plays. In the process, drops her pick, picks it up without missing a beat and sings the most beautiful version of the national anthem that I’ve ever heard in my entire life.” Hilarie Burton Joy's someone who challenges herself to be electric on every take. Many times she will make choices that elevate the material. And that's when you really win. Mark Schwahn She's quiet, soulful. That's a good word for her. She's one of those people who are just really talented. David Hartley, One Tree Hill producer The audience took to Joie in the snap of a finger. I've never seen anything like that before. Mary Alice Dwyer-Dobbin, executive in charge of Procter & Gamble productions My first impression of Joie was, 'Damn, she's 17.' Paul Anthony Stewart, Guiding Light Joie Lenz... wasn't she great... I got her a gold bracelet at the end of the shoot that had "Reva 17" inscribed on it. What a talent... We shot 7 shows in 5 days that first week... almost 200 solid pages of material... it could have been a horrific experience... It was great fun... Robert Newman, Guiding Light [Joy is] an amazing person. She's the type of girl who can do anything! She's been fortunate to be in the public limelight on a number of occasions, but we've never seen it go to her head. She's mature well beyond her actual years. She's level-headed and sensible, yet full of that crazy artist-passion which makes her so fun! a family friend I wasn't really a hardcore Danny and Michelle fan, but I did really like Joie Lenz. She easily clicked and held her own with Robert Newman, Michael O'Leary, Hunt Block, Laura Wright, and other actors. Paul Anthony Stewart is a good actor and Joie Lenz clicked with him too. I was a fan of hers from the clone. She was the perfect adult Michelle. She gave Michelle a depth that was lacking since Rachel Miner left the role. There was such a genuine quality to her. She didn't play Michelle as a victimized martyr either. She played Michelle as a true heroine who was sweet, sexy, passionate, and strong. Unlike the current Michelle, her Michelle had a backbone. She was determined without being obstinate. She was warm without being tepid. She was sweet without being saccharine. She was devoted and loyal without seeming like a stepford wife with a glazed look in her eye. She didn't have to try to be sexy. She just was. a Guiding Light viewer I couldn't help but notice that the 'it' she brought to the screen, and in her photographs, transferred to her being right in front of me. Some actors just look different, some look the same, some blend in, but she stood out every single time. What she brought to the screen came across very easily. a fan on meeting Joie It isn't just one scene or one moment that captured our hearts, it's the character that was created and nurtured over time. It's a scene here, a moment there, that look in her eye, the smile on her lips, it's all of them coming together, it's the little things that I will miss and remember most. [...] I will remember all the faces of Michelle: daughter, sister, friend, wife and mother. So instead of rushing home to pull out my tape and watch my scene, I'll just close my eyes, cue the song in my heart and let my mind take me back and just remember... Joie Luck Club tribute on Joy's last day on Guiding Light Joy sings a lot. Joy's constantly... always always using her voice. She sings between takes and stuff. I always laugh because she's always singing some showtune that I have no idea what it is or where it's from or when it's from or she just made it up. But uh yeah she does have an incredible voice and she's a very talented girl. And um when she sang the national anthem I'll be honest, I never hear a national anthem like that, I think that's probably my favorite national anthem I've ever heard because I wanted to hear more after it was over. It was really great. James Lafferty __________________
