Ordinary Days Lyrics

Track 6. Ordinary Days

Ordinary Days—JULY 1989

[Verse 1]

Morning finds us like it always has,

You're by the door, I'm by the wall.

You take the outer side of our bed,

Already waking before the dawn.

The coffee's brewing, I know your smile,

"Sweet and rich," you always say.

Every breakfast feels like a feast,

Even when an egg begins the day.

[Pre-Chorus]

Your eyes may miss the smallest lines,

But your heart sees farther than mine.

You know where we're going,

Even when the road is hard to find.

[Chorus]

In all the ordinary days we share,

Love is waiting quietly right there.

Hand in hand through everything we see,

Love never fails, and neither do we.

[Verse 2]

We lose ourselves in worlds we find,

Two players on the very same side.

You fill our home with thoughtful words,

Making simple moments shine.

Your books are stacked beside our bed,

Always learning something new.

You speak with wisdom, frank and clear,

And somehow make the truth shine through.

[Pre-Chorus]

Your eyes may miss the smallest lines,

But your heart sees farther than mine.

You know where we're going,

Even when the road is hard to find.

[Bridge 1]

You laugh and cry through every scene,

Finding beauty in between.

You've known hurt, yet still forgive,

Showing me the way to live.

[Bridge 2]

People see us walking side by side,

Maybe they notice something true.

If they ask what keeps us holding on,

The answer will always be you.

[Big Chorus]

In all the ordinary days we share,

Love is waiting quietly right there.

Hand in hand through everything we see,

Love never fails, and neither do we.

[Outro]

In all the ordinary days we share...

Love is waiting quietly right there.

Hand in hand through everything we see...

Love never fails...

And neither do we.
