Ordinary People

Met you out late last night Lost my voice but you didn’t mind Held my waist to your own Danced all night and kissed me slow Morning comes and you text me “We should go somewhere that we can hang our souls by our teeth, falling quickly and ever deep.” Well you came ‘round at half past five You hate the movies but I didn’t mind I said I know a lookout, dear We could go not far from here To cast our mind’s and rest your head On my shoulder ‘till it’s dead Oh my love so it seems, My world stops when you look at me Mmm, when you look at me Mmm, I really hope that you don’t leave like ordinary people But a fool could see that you would never be in love as deep And it tears me apart Days they fly, nights fall down Trace your footsteps all over town I don’t know where they’ll end up But if I’m with you that’s enough You told me ‘bout the man you loved For two years straight then you hung it up When you caught him with your best friend Now you’re scared to ever love again Mmm, but I’d always be there Mmm, I really hope that you don’t leave like ordinary people But a fool could see that you would never be in love as deep And it tears me apart I know I know I know I know I know I know I know That you would never be in love I know I know I know I know I know I know I know That you would never be in love as deep And it tears me apart --- Ordinary People - Blake Rose
