It's an ordinary day
Just like any other day
when I’ve got every little
Death and life
Showed my first cry the same day
Boarded first train the same day
Rivers and trees flowed past
On the windowpanes
Girls seated by me laughing
Unlike those kids’ harsh laughing
where I’d learnt how weak how small
I used to be
I used to be a dumb boy
Making jackstraws my only toys
Seeing a white bird break the sky
Maybe my day came
Oh lord take me afar
Far from the country home
My father told me not to cry
Under big city lights
(Bridge)
It's an ordinary day
Just like any other day
when I kill myself and revive
Nothing wrong with life
Working like a dog everyday
Running like a car everyday
At night I sleep alone with nothing
But a load of dreams
Girls dancing by me smiling
Unlike that fading smiling
It taught me what love gave
and destroyed
Destroyed as ruins should be
Rebuilt as ruins should be
My trees and rivers come back
From my faraway dream
Oh lord take me home
But Is there anyone waiting?
My father told me “Don’t look back,
‘Cuz the time’s opening its hands.”
Oh lord please take me there
the place I've been dreaming
My father talked as a wise man
Life is the only book he had
