This big time ride is all I know
A picture-perfect life on show
Stellar nights that never end
and people claim to be your friend

But you are the one I need
No place I'd rather be
Here only I can breathe
Love is a simple thing for free

Please don't take that away from me
Forgive me if it sounds mundane
What matters now is our ordinary day
Ordinary day
What matters now is our ordinary day
Ordinary day

Don't say big words or even try
Don't build me castles in the sky
No clever tales (if true who knows)
I choose the plainly spoken prose

But you are the one I need
No place I'd rather be
Here only I can breathe
Love is a simple thing for free

Please don't take that away from me
Forgive me if it sounds mundane
What matters now is our ordinary day
Ordinary day
What matters now is our ordinary day
Ordinary day

'Cause you are the one I need
There's no place I'd rather be
'Cause love is free and simple
Please, you can't take that away from me
Excuse me if it's all the same
What matters now is our ordinary day
What matters now is our ordinary day
Ordinary day
Ordinary day
What matters now is our ordinary day
Ordinary day
Ordinary day
Ordinary day
Ordinary day
What matters now is our ordinary day;
