Came in from a rainy Thursday on the avenue<br>
Thought I heard you talking softly<br>
I turned on the lights, the TV and the radio<br>
Still, I can't escape the ghost of you<br>
What has happened to it all?<br>
Crazy, some'd say<br>
Where is the life that I recognize?<br>
(Gone away)<br>
But I won't cry for yesterday, there's an ordinary world<br>
Somehow I have to find<br>
And as I try to make my way to the ordinary world<br>
I will learn to survive<br>
Passion or coincidence once prompted you to say<br>
"Pride will tear us both apart"<br>
Well now, pride's gone out the window, 'cross the rooftops, run away<br>
Left me in the vacuum of my heart<br>
What is happening to me?<br>
Crazy, some'd say<br>
Where is my friend when I need you most?<br>
(Gone away)<br>
But I won't cry for yesterday, there's an ordinary world<br>
Somehow I have to find<br>
And as I try to make my way to the ordinary world<br>
I will learn to survive<br>
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, Ah-uh-huh<br>
Papers in the roadside tell of suffering and greed<br>
Fear today, forgot tomorrow<br>
Ooh, here beside the news of holy war and holy need<br>
Ours is just a little sorrowed talk (Just blown away)<br>
And I don't cry for yesterday, there's an ordinary world<br>
Somehow I have to find<br>
And as I try to make my way to the ordinary world<br>
I will learn to survive<br>
Every world is my world (I will learn to survive)<br>
Any world is my world (I will learn to survive)<br>
Any world is my world<br>
Every world is my world<br>

Lyrics

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

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, Ah-uh-huh

Papers in the roadside tell of suffering and greed
Fear today, forgot tomorrow
Ooh, here beside the news of holy war and holy need
Ours is just a little sorrowed talk (Just blown away)

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 world is my world (I will learn to survive)
Any world is my world (I will learn to survive)
Any world is my world
Every world is my world
