Vanessa Carlton - Ordinary Day (Live Version) Lyrics

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 feel in dreams I ride 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 feel in dreams I ride 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 he my take my hand,
Live while you can,
Don't you feel in dreams I ride 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.
