Ordinary world

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 the world
Crazy some say
Where is the light that I recognize

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

Papers in the roadside
Tell of suffering and greed
Fear today forgot tomorrow
Here besides the news
Of holy war and holy need
Ours is just a little sorrow
At all

What has happened to the world
Crazy some say
Where is my friend when I need you most?

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

Oh to survive

Any world is my world
Any world is my world
Any world is my world
Every world is my world
