Ordinary Boy Extraordinary Girl

Still

Cruising around in search of all I’ve missed

Blissed

It’s taking me up to where my heart’s been kissed

The score

Is feeling so naked and raw

Nothing felt this real before

 

Feel

Like closing my eyes and jumping in the blue

Steel

Myself for the feeling it cannot be true

The crime

Is taking me far back in time

I’m feeling unsteady but primed

 

‘cause I’m

An ordinary boy

Waiting for something to happen like

This extraordinary girl

With timing out of this world

My inner strength unfurls

In the meantime I’m

Going out of my mind

 

I crave

Your sense of purpose and integrity

Betrayed

By this outrageous world

We’re all at sea

Afraid

I cannot live up to

This fantasy of you

 

‘cause I’m

An ordinary boy

Waiting for something to happen like

This extraordinary girl

With timing out of this world

My inner strength unfurls

In the meantime I’m

Going out of my mind
