Ordinary Lives

The situation gets away

When the chips are down

And its all around

And expectations up this time

Disappointment fares

And you won't be there

Just take your time

We've got ordinary lives

They'll take advantage now

Just take ya time

We've got ordinary lives

I'll take my chance

This time

Disintegration gets away

And your asking how

But there's something else

Too much to make a difference now

But you needed more

There's an open door

Just take your time

We've got ordinary lives

They'll take advantage now

Just take ya time

We've got ordinary lives

I'll take my chance

This time

Now I know, you never ever needed it before

I know, I tried when you were walkin' out the door

I know, you never ever needed it before

I know, I try but you were walkin' out

I never ever needed it before

The situation gets away

When the chips are down and its all around

And expectations of this time

Won't eventuate

Only complicate

Just take your time

We've got ordinary lives

They'll take advantage now

Just take ya time

We've got ordinary lives

I'll take my chance

This time

I'll take my chance

This time

I'll take my chance

This time
