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'd say Where is the life that i recognize? 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 "Pride will tear us both apart" Well, now pride's gone out the window Cross the rooftops Run away Left me in the vacuum of my heart What is happening to me? Crazy, some'd say 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 I won't cry for yesterday (every world) There's an ordinary world (is my world) Somehow i have to find And as i try to make my way (any world) To the ordinary world (is my world) I will learn to survive

My day starts up the same It looks like it might rain But I will not complain 'Cause I can see the sun I say my little prayers Running down the stairs The streets are going nowhere But I don't care 'Cause this day is beautiful Nothing's gonna get me down It's no ordinary world When you're here with me I take the time to smile I have the space to breathe It's no ordinary world When you walk with me I see inside my dreams Every diamond, every pearl It's no ordinary world No ordinary world Everybody's got a dream Every thought and every scheme And all the spaces in between To see the clouds I won't give it too much time To get inside my mind 'Cause all that really matters Is here and now When you're laying close to me You're all the joy I need It's no ordinary world When you're here with me I take the time to smile I have the space to breathe It's no ordinary world When you walk with me I see inside my dreams Every diamond, every pearl It's no ordinary world With your hand in mine No reason to take our time Surrender to love like good religion Oh, it's no ordinary world It's no ordinary world When you're here with me I take the time to smile I have the space to breathe It's no ordinary world When you walk with me I see inside my dreams Every diamond, every pearl It's no ordinary world Oh, no, no ordinary world Oh, no, no ordinary world It's no ordinary world (No ordinary world) Girl, when you walk with me (No ordinary world) Give me the space to breathe (No ordinary world, you're the only one I need) 'Cause it's no ordinary world (You're the only one I need, no ordinary world...)

There's a shadow hanging heavy There's a cold chill in my bones It's a steep road, high and weary It's a long, long way from home But I will not shut my eyes No, I will not fall silent Canary in the mine Oh I will, honey I will I will sing I will sing There's a madness in the valley There's a darkness that can blind It was every man for himself No one's getting out alive But I will not shut my eyes No, I will not fall silent Canary in the mine Oh I will, ooh honey I will I will sing I will sing Sing, sing, sing Sing, sing, sing Sing, sing, sing, canary sing Sing, sing, sing Sing, sing, sing Sing, sing, sing, canary sing Oh I will sing I will sing There's a shadow hanging overhead There's a cold chill in my bones

There are no wrong roads And no window stays closed Love is always sad when it fades The glass is better stained anyways If never you find what you're looking for Come on back to the front porch Say my name through the screen door Come on back to the front porch Whatever you've done it doesn't matter 'Cause darling we're all a little splintered and battered But the light is on, what you waiting for? Come on back, come on back to the front porch We carved a story in these boards Watching life go back and forth You take it all for granted, then you leave And then it takes a while to realize what you need If never you find what you're looking for Come on back to the front porch Say my name through the screen door Come on back to the front porch Whatever you've done it doesn't matter 'Cause darling we're all a little splintered and battered But the light is on, what you waiting for? Come on back, come on back I took the long way Looking for the shortcut To find out that this place Was made of the best of If never you find what you're looking for Come on back to the front porch Say my name through the screen door Oh, come on back to the front porch Whatever you've done it doesn't matter 'Cause darling we're all a little splintered and battered But the light is on, what you waiting for? Come on back, come on back Oh, come on back, come on back to the front porch

They say home is where the heart is And my heart is across the Mississippi line I've been traveling, roaming, walked a thousand miles Just to break down, turn round and come back Honey it's true There ain't nothing I can do 'Cause there's no place No place like you I may ramble, I may wander But when you kiss me I'm back where I belong And through the hard times, good times, wrap me in your arms 'Cause I need you, need you, need you Honey it's true There ain't nothing I can do 'Cause there's no place No place like you I found what I'm looking for There's no need to run anymore Honey it's true There ain't nothing I can do 'Cause there's no place No place like you Honey it's true After all that we've been through There's no place No place, no No place like you

Let me walk beside you Hold your hand and guide you You can hold my hand You can be my man Oh, we'll be dreaming Oh, always dreaming Oh, be my one and only Be my one and only Be my one and only One and only Let's go walk at midnight Underneath the streetlights And underneath the streetlights You and me, we're fireflies Oh, we'll be dreaming Oh, always dreaming Oh, be my one and only Be my one and only Be my one and only One and only Let me make you coffee Early in the morning Let me give you something Something much stronger Oh, we'll be dreaming Oh, always dreaming Oh, be my one and only Be my one and only Be my one and only Be my one and only Be my one and only One and only
