Ordinary Day [Album Version]

Vanessa Carlton

3

Just a day,

Just an ordinary day

Just tryin to get by

Just a boy

Just an ordinary boy

But he was looking to the sky

And as he asked if I would come along

I started to realise

That every day he finds

Just what he's looking for

Like a shooting star he shines

And he said take my hand,

Live while you can

Don't you see your dreams lie right in the palm of your hand

And as he spoke, he spoke ordinary words

Although they did not feel

For I felt what I had not felt before

And you'd swear those words could heal

And as I looked up into those eyes

His vision borrows mine

And I know he's no stranger,

For I feel I've held him for all of time

And he said take my hand

Live while you can

Don't you see your dreams right in the palm of your hand (Oh)

In the palm of your hand

Please come with me

See what I see

Touch the stars for time will not flee

Time will not flee

Can't you see

Just a dream, just an ordinary dream

As I wake in bed

And the boy, that ordinary boy

Or was it all in my head

Did he ask if I would come along

It all seemed so real

But as I looked to the door

I saw that boy standing there with a deal

And he said take my hand

Live while you can,

Don't you see your dreams lie right in the palm of your hand (oh)

In the palm of your hand (oh)

In the palm of your hand

Just a day, just an ordinary day

Just tryin to get by

Just a boy Just an ordinary boy

But he was lookin to the sky...
