Ordinary Day
From - Be Not Nobody
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 you find 
Just what he's looking for
Like a shooting star he shines
 
He said take my hand
Live while you can
Don't you see 
Your dreams are 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
You'd swear those words could heal
And I as 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 see 
Your dreams are right in the palm of your hand
Right 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 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 are 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
