Lyrics
Ordinary World
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
All is quiet down by the old sugar mill
Everything but the wind is all so still
Left behind till the rust blended
Once upon a time you were here
Cause everything we know is gone
Everything we’ve lost and found
We were just walking through an ordinary world
And all of everything's [?]
We were just lovers in an ordinary world
What are we if not memories
It’s been years since 2051
That was when I last heard you call my name
But if someone’s out there please give me a sign
Cause everything we know is gone
Everything we’ve lost and found
We were just walking through an ordinary world
And all of everything's [?]
We were just lovers in an ordinary world
All is quiet down by the old sugar mill
I’m the last one still standing here
