[Verse 1]

Came in from a rainy Thursday on the avenue

I thought I heard you talking softly

I turned on the lights, the TV and the radio

And still I can't escape the ghost of you

[Pre-Chorus]

What has happened to it all?

Crazy, some would say

Where is the life that I recognize?

Gone away

[Chorus]

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

[Verse 2]

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

[Pre-Chorus]

What has happened to me?

Crazy, some would say

Where is my friend when I need you most?

Gone away

[Chorus]

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

[Pre-Chorus]

What has happened to it all?

Crazy, some would say

Where is the world that I recognize?

Gone away

[Chorus]

And 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

[Outro]

Everyone is my world

I will learn to survive

Everyone, everyone

Somehow I have to find
