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 the world?

Crazy some'd say

Where is the life that I recognize?



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

Here besides the news of holy war and holy need

Ours is just a little sorrowed talk

What has happened to the world?

Crazy some'd say

Where is my friend when I need you most?



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



Any world is my world

Any world is my world

Any world is my world

Every world is my world
