Wake up to the sound of my same old alarm
The coffee brews
I hit snooze
No cause for alarm
The world outside is spinning fast but I'm standing still
With a pile of papers and a list to fulfill
Oh these ordinary days they keep me in a haze
But I dream of extraordinary ways
When the skies break open and the stars align
I'll find my magic step out of time
The subway doors they close with a sigh
I stare at the windows as the world rushes by
The faces around me all locked in routine
But I'm chasing shadows of places unseen
Oh these ordinary days they keep me in a haze
But I dream of extraordinary ways
When the skies break open and the stars align
I'll find my magic step out of time
There's something out there I can feel it close
A spark in the air the mystery grows
I know there's more to this world than I see
Just waiting for a sign to set me free
Oh these ordinary days they keep me in a haze
But I dream of extraordinary ways
When the skies break open and the stars align
I'll find my magic step out of time
One day I'll wake up and the ordinary will fade
As I step through the portal that my dreams have made
