Ordinary World Lyrics

[00:14.46] Came in from a rainy Thursday on the avenue
[00:21.24] Thought I heard you talking softly
[00:28.09] I turned on the lights, the TV, and the radio
[00:35.29] Still I can't escape the ghost of you
[00:42.03] What has happened to it all?
[00:45.60] Crazy, some'd say
[00:48.96] Where is the life that I recognise? (Gone away)
[00:56.29] But I won't cry for yesterday
[00:59.87] There's an ordinary world
[01:03.59] Somehow I have to find
[01:09.94] And as I try to make my way
[01:13.80] To the ordinary world
[01:17.11] I will learn to survive
[01:30.19] Passion or coincidence once prompted you to say
[01:36.91] "Pride will tear us both apart"
[01:42.72] Well, now pride's gone out the window
[01:46.30] Cross the rooftops, run away
[01:50.53] Left me in the vacuum of my heart
[01:57.15] What is happening to me?
[02:00.70] Crazy, some'd say
[02:04.22] Where is my friend when I need you most? (Gone away)
[02:11.92] But I won't cry for yesterday
[02:15.35] There's an ordinary world
[02:18.82] Somehow I have to find
[02:25.36] And as I try to make my way
[02:29.30] To the ordinary world
[02:32.69] I will learn to survive
[02:41.46] Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
[02:45.18] Ahh-ah-ahh
[02:51.29] Away-ay, ay-ay-ay-ay
[02:59.95] Oh, oh
[03:06.54] Papers in the roadside tell of suffering and greed
[03:13.24] Fear today, forgot tomorrow
[03:19.24] Ooh-ooh
[03:20.44] Here besides the news of holy war and holy need
[03:27.28] Ours is just a little sorrowed talk
[03:34.84] And I don't cry for yesterday
[03:38.31] There's an ordinary world
[03:41.77] Somehow I have to find
[03:48.52] And as I try to make my way
[03:52.12] To the ordinary world
[03:55.54] I will learn to survive
[04:00.86] (Every world is my world)
[04:09.37] I will learn to survive
[04:14.49] (Any world is my world)
[04:16.58] I will learn to survive
[04:16.73] (Any world is my world)
[04:16.82] (Every world is my world)
[04:17.08]
