Kurt Nilsen - Ordinary world lyrics

rate me

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

but still I can't escape the ghost of you

What is happening to me

crazy some say

Where is the life that I recognize (gone away)

And 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 runaway

Left me in the vacuum of my heart

What is happening to me

crazy some 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 grief

Fear today forgot tomorrow

o-oh, Here beside the news of holy war and holy need

Our's is just a little sorrowed talk (just blown away)

And I won't cry…

Every world is my world (I will learn to survive)

Any world is my world (I will learn to survive)

Any world is my world, every world is our world, every world
