Sonder Lyrics by Cal Murphy

Limitations

2021

[1]
There's a boy in Manitoba
He takes his days one at a time
Dreams of a wife and kids and little backyard
With a tree for the kids to climb

[2]
And he's different from the girl in Houston
Who always dreamt of being a nurse
She got a little too addicted to alcohol
Now she's living at her worst

[Break]
So just hold on

[3]
There's a man living in Jamaica
He doesn't worry bout time
But when the light turns red–he'll wash another window
Cause he needs to make a dime

[4]
There's a plumber out in Pittsburg
And he's a father of two
His wife ran off and found another kind of lover
So he's trying to make it through

[Chorus]
And as long you feel this sonder
The world'll spin back around
You're not the lead or the star of this show
Cause we're are all human beings
Who just keep trying to be human
We got our own lies and times to be known

[5]
There's a doctor in Vancouver
She's never been on a date
She lost too much time trying to focus, trying to study
And she waited just a little too late

[6]
There was a boy living in Hong Kong
Trying to make his mom and dad real proud
But he lost his life trying to feel alright
Losing time cause he wasn't allowed

[Break]
So just hold on

[7]
There's a lady who was born in Munich
She dreamed of travelling around the world
But had a kid at 15 so she's lookin' in the mirror
Trying to pass her torch to her girl

[8]
And this guy living in New York
He wants to help the world try to change
But he dismisses the thought as he makes more money
Trading stocks on another exchange

[Chorus]
And as long you feel this sonder
The world'll spin back around
You're not the lead or the star of this show
Cause we're are all human beings
Who just keep trying to be human
We got our own lies and times to be known
