VANESSA CARLTON lyrics : "ordinary day (album version)"


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 every day he finds just what he's looking for

Like a shooting star he shines





And he said, "Take my hand

Live while you can


Don't you see your dreams lie 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


And you'd swear those words couldn't heal that




And as I looked up into those eyes


His vision borrows mine


And I 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 your dreams 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't 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?




Didn't he ask 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 your dreams lie 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
