Ordinary World Lyrics - Singles - Joy Williams

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 are saying 

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 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 

Photos 

Papers in the roadside 

Tell of suffering and greed 

Here today, forgot tomorrow 

Ooh, here besides the news 

Of holy war and holy need 

Ours is just a little sorrowed talk 

And 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 one 

Is my world, I will learn to survive 

Any one 

Is my world, I will learn to survive 

Any one 

Is my world 

Every one 

Is my world
