Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Where can I find the city of shining light
In an ordinary world?
How can I leave a buried treasure behind
In an ordinary world?
[Verse 2]
The days into years roll by
It's where that I live until I die
Ordinary world
[Verse 3]
What would you wish if you saw a shooting star
In an ordinary world?
I'd walk to the end of the earth and afar
In an ordinary world
[Verse 4]
Baby, I don't have much
But what we have is more than enough
Ordinary world
[Verse 5]
Where can I find the city of shining light
In an ordinary world?
How can I leave a buried treasure behind
In an ordinary world?
[Verse 6]
Baby, I don't have much
But what we have is more than enough
Ordinary world
Written by: Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt, Tré Cool
