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 has happened to me?
+
Crazy, some would 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
+
Papers in the roadside tell of suffering and greed
+
Fear today, forgot tomorrow
+
Oh, here beside the news of holy war and holy need
+
Ours is just a little sorrowed talk
+
But I don'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
+
Every world
+
Is my world
+
Any world
+
Is my world
+
