Tony Almond - The Ordinary Life Lyrics

Take a moment to consider
The adventure yet complete
With all ambition laid bare
Scattered puzzle pieces at your feet

You see,
The ordinary life is not so far from you, as you would like
And then, you realise
It's what you've been living

In the ordinary life
Thinking all that has passed by
Through prevailing winds
And time slipping

The everyday humdrum world
To which we will return
With the emerging sea that will swell our yearning

There are those who want nothing more than
Something so mundane and customary
That immense freedom to be bored
They can only dream of such luxury!

The ordinary life is not so far from me, as I would like
And sure, I've realised
It's what I've always been living

How abnormal can I be?
Like everyone, I have the need
Just for once in this life
To do something remarkable

The ordinary life we're all living
With each extraordinary possibility

The ordinary life we're all lucky to be living
With each extraordinary possibility
