Ordinary Life Lyrics

Suddenly the sun is on
And turned up high
When you don't expect it
Heat's the best surprise
While our clothes are hanging on
For dear life, hanging out to dry out
Waiting to be used
Another day
Time for lunch
Time to set the table
Take a chair
Take the one you like
I wouldn't have to climb
The bar isn't so high
I wouldn't have to guess
The trouble on your mind
I'd hum against the wind
And often at your side
An ordinary "we"
An ordinary life
Even if you wanted to
You couldn't leave
Neighbors in your skin
Sifted through the lease
Pretty soon we'll be set to buy
We turned that round
We'll have you round
Go on bring your kids and dress it up
Holding on-holding up to grown-ups
Making due
Making due for now
They wouldn't have to climb
Ordinary "them"
Safe
