Ordinary World

Came in from a rainy Thursday on the avenue

Thought I heard you talking softly

I turned on the lights, the TV and the radio

Still I can't escape the ghost of you

What has happened to it all?

Crazy, some will say

Where is the life that I recognize?

It's gone away

But I won't cry for yesterday

There's an ordinary world

Somehow I have to find

And as I try to make my way

To the ordinary world

I will learn to survive

Passion or coincidence

Once prompted you to say

That pride will tear us both apart

Pride's gone out the window

'Cross the rooftop, gone away

And left me in the vacuum of my heart

Ooh, what has happened to me?

Crazy, some will say

But where is my friend when I need you most?

Gone away

But I won't cry for yesterday

There's an ordinary world

Somehow I have to find

And as I try to make my way

To the ordinary world

I will learn to survive

Papers in the roadside tell us suffering and greed

Here today, forgot tomorrow

Ooh, here beside the news of holy war and holy need

Ours is just a little sorrowed talk

And I won't cry for yesterday

There's an ordinary world

Somehow I have to find

And as I try to make my way

To the ordinary world

I will learn to survive

Everyone

Is my world

Everyone

Is my world
