Ordinary Life Lyrics by Kristen Barry

Cruel Intentions

1999

[Intro]
[Verse 1]
And I shed my soul
Feel it kneeling down
I'm clutching my faith
Pull it tightly around
You're moving your mouth
But you don't make a sound
But I feel the walls
Slowly tearing down
[Verse 2]
Heel to toe
Takes you from my side
In and out
Every breath divides
My eyes to your head
I can't go the distance
But when you go
You take me in an instant
[Chorus]
But in this life
I'll give it time
'Cause it's always swimming up
From behind
It'll be alright
It will be fine
'Cause it's nothing more
Than ordinary life
[Verse 3]
So I'll show you my sins
Show me all your scars
As we settle in
It's written in the stars
Your watery eyes
Got me simply floating
And my weak heart
Is swimming with devotion
[Chorus]
But in this life
I'll give it time
'Cause it's always swimming up
From behind
It'll be alright
It will be fine
'Cause it's nothing more
Than ordinary life
But in this life
I'll give it time
'Cause it's always swimming up
From behind
It'll be alright
It will be fine
'Cause it's nothing more
Than ordinary life
[Outro]
