The song "Joy" by Beth Hart & Joe Bonamassa is about reclaiming one's happiness and positivity in life, after someone or something has taken it away. The lyrics express the desire to regain one's joy that has been stolen by someone who had no right to take it. The song also explores the idea of finding joy in different places, such as in the Lord or in nature. The repetition of the word "joy" throughout the song emphasizes how important it is to the speaker, and how much they want it back. The song's story is one of redemption, as the speaker seeks to overcome the negative impact of someone else's actions and find happiness once again.
