Live a life less ordinary
|
Live a life extraordinary with me
|
Live a life less sedentary
|
Live a life evolutionary with me
|
Well I hate to be a bother,
|
But it's you and there's no other, I do believe
|
You can call me naive but...
|
I know me very well (at least as far as I can tell)
|
And I know what I need
|
|
The night you came into my life
|
Well it took the bones of me, took the bones of me
|
You blew away my storm and strife
|
And shook the bones of me, shook the bones of me
|
By the way, I do know why you stayed away...
|
I will keep tongue-tied next time
|
|
Live a life less ordinary
|
Live a life extraordinary with me
|
My face had said too much
|
Before our hands could even touch
|
To greet a 'hello'
|
(So much for going slow...)
|
A little later on that year
|
I told you that I loved you dear
|
What do you know?
|
This you weren't prepared to hear
|
I'm a saddened man, I'm a broken boy
|
I'm a toddler with a complex toy
|
I've fallen apart, since the ambush of your heart
|
|
The night you came into my life
|
Well it took the bones of me, took the bones of me
|
You blew away my storm and strife
|
And shook the bones of me, shook the bones of me.
|
By the way, I do know why you stayed away
|
I will keep tongue-tied but...
|
|
Honey understand, honey understand
|
I won't make demands
|
Honey understand, honey understand
|
We could walk without a plan.
|
Honey understand (honey), honey understand
|
I won't rest in stone all alone
|
Honey understand, honey understand
|
I'm all ready to go
|
But you already know...
|
|
Live a life less ordinary
|
Live a life extraordinary with me.
|
If I could name you in this song
|
Would it make you smile and sing along?
|
This is the goal: to get into your soul
|
If I could make you dance for joy
|
Could that be the second-chance decoy?
|
The bird-in-hand I would need
|
To help you understand?
|
|
The night you came into my life
|
well it took the bones of me, took the bones of me
|
You blew away my storm and strife
|
And shook the bones of me, shook the bones of me
|
By the way, I do know why you stayed away
|
I will keep tongue-tied next time
