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'd say

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



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
