Ordinary Magic

Looking down from way up high
We see the Sun, it always shines
Ya, we’re bathed in a basic goodness
So just look up and you’ll be fine

Tell me what you want
Tell me what you need
Tell me that you understand me please
Your every little fear
Your every little hope
Will wash away with time
It’s time you awoke
Stop waiting for angels
In a sunbeam of angels

You’re moving, you’re huffin’ and puffin’
You’ve got ambition and a drive to go
Yet in the end that amounts all to nothing
If when you got there you missed the show

Tell me what you want
Tell me what you need
Tell me that you understand me please
Your every little fear
Your every little hope that you hold dear
Please

Time might just heal you but it’s always the same
With each breath comes a moment of truth
How you now feel, well that’s all apt to change
As sure as the passing of youth
Until we’re gone

Tell me what you want
Tell me what you need
Tell me that you understand me please
