All Things Ordinary

I've seen those eyes

I've watched them close at night

And you breathe in

And you breathe out again

Sister's coming over

And I'm afraid to tell her

Secrets that I know

Painting without colors

Tends to make it better

Bleaches out the world

Was it the end

The end that kept you up 'til the morning?

Was it the boy

The boy who stole your heart?

Summer goes on

And then dies quick without much warning

All things ordinary

Will you stay near me now?

Don't leave this town

Until we've figured out

Between the two of us

We're strong enough

I feel that in your touch

Full from the dinner

But feeling somewhat thinner

Aching in the chest

Kids behind the windows

Calling out the answers

To questions never asked

Was it the end

The end that kept you up till the morning?

Was it the boy

The boy who stole your heart?

Summer goes on

And then dies quick without much warning

All things ordinary

Will you stay near me now?

Don't leave this town

Until we've figured out

Between the two of us

We're strong enough

I feel that in your touch

I've seen those eyes

I've watched them close at night

What clean comes in

Always comes out again

Will you stay near me now?

Don't leave this town

Until we've figured out

Between the two of us

We're strong enough

I feel that in your touch
