Ordinary World
Lyrics
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

But I won't cry for yesterday
And as I try to make my way
"Pride will tear us both apart"
To the ordinary world
To the ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
Thought I heard you talking softly
What is happening to me?
There's an ordinary world
Besides the news of holy war and holy need
I will learn to survive
Cross the rooftops, run away
What has happened to it all?
(I will learn to survive)
Somehow I have to find
Crazy someone say
Gone away
(Just blown away)
There's an ordinary world
And as I try to make my way
Papers in the roadside tell of suffering and greed
Every world is my world
And as I try to make my way
Crazy someone say
There's an ordinary world
I turned on the lights, the TV, and the radio
Well now prides gone out the window
Left me in the vacuum of my heart
Passion or coincidence once prompted you to say
Any world is my world
Came in from a rainy Thursday on the avenue
Where is my friend when I need you most?
(I will learn to survive)
I will learn to survive
Ours is just a little sorrowed talk

Somehow I have to find
To the ordinary world
Still I can't escape the ghost of you
Fear today, forgot tomorrow
But I won't cry for yesterday
Any world is my world
Gone away
Every world is our world
I will learn to survive
And I don't cry for yesterday
