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 is happening to me?
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 runaway
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
(Just gone away)
Papers in the roadside tell of suffering and grief
Here today forgot tomorrow
Ooh, here besides the news of holy war and holy need
Ours is just a little sorrowed talk
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
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, ever world…
