Joshua has a way of making you believe that he is believing everything he is singing ... which he does. He lives the song. What a voice! 💞👍💞

Lyrics: Look up there, high above us, In a sky of blackest silk. See how round, like a cookie See how white as white as milk. Call it, “the moon” my son, Say “MOON”. Sounds like your spoon, my son, Can you say it? New word today! Say “MOON” Near the moon brightly turning, See those shining sparks of light? Each one new, each one burning Through the darkness of the night. We call them “stars”, my son, Say “STARS”! That one is Mars, my son. Can you say it? New word today! Say “Stars”. As they blink all around us, Playing starry-eyed games, Who would think it astounds us Simply naming their names? Turn your eyes from the skies now. Turn around and look at me. There’s a light in my eyes now, And a word for what you see. We call it “Love”, my son. Say “LOVE”. So, hard to say, my son. It get’s harder.

Scraping knees, tying shoes, Starting school, paying dues, Finding there's no way We can spend a lifetime playing ball Part of getting tall. Learning more, knowing less, Simple words, tenderness part of getting tall. You know you're not crazy, you're all right. Everyone wants everyone in sight ... But knowing you have no one if you try to have them all Is part of tying shoes, Part of starting school, Part of scraping knees if we should fall Part of getting tall.

[@briannasoto412]

He's my age (not in this vid, but now) why can't I sing like that?

[@michaelbilgen2976]

5:33 aww.

[@HagbardCeline42]

I can't get a minute into that song without turning into a weepy mess.

[@horselover123417]

Their faces are so red.

[@taylordonn]

It's the lighting.

[@saraht8003]

I didn't cry .nope not at all

[@chloeconey5917]

I noticed that Joshua barely blinks for the first minute that he’s on stage! Nerves perhaps

[@9496453217]

Yea... Josh went into the "emo" thing which has lost all of its popularity....
