Vanessa Carlton - Ordinary Day

Just a day,

Just an ordinary day.

Just tryin' to get by.

Just a boy,

Just an ordinary boy.

But he was looking to the sky.

And as he asked if I would come along

I started to realize

That everyday he finds

Just what he's looking for,

Like a shooting star he shines.

He said take my hand,

Live while you can

Don't you see all you dreams are

Right in the palm of your hand

And as he spoke, he spoke ordinary words

Although they did not feel, no

For I felt what I had not felt before

You'd swear those words could heal.

And as I looked up into those eyes

His vision borrows mine.

And to know he's no stranger,

For I feel I've held him for all of time.

And he said take my hand,

Live while you can

Don't you see all your dreams are

Right in the palm of your hand,

In the palm of your hand,

Please come with me,

See what I see.

Touch the stars for time will not flee.

Time will not flee.

Can you see

Just a dream, just an ordinary dream.

As I wake in bed

And the boy, that ordinary boy.

Or was it all in my head?

Did he asked if I would come along

It all seemed so real.

But as I looked to the door,

I saw that boy standing there with a deal.

And he said take my hand,

Live while you can

Don't you see all your dreams are

Right in the palm of your hand,

In the palm of your hand,

In the palm of your hand,

Just a day,

Just an ordinary day.

Just tryin' to get by.

Just a boy,

Just an ordinary boy.

But he was looking to the sky.
