Story Behind The Song
This was song (day) # 17 of my '30 Songs in 30 Days' writing spree in January '09. It was part of my cathartic experience that occurred that month. Another question/ observation about existence.
Song Description
Unwilling to accept that this is an ordinary day and an ordinary life and that we just fade away, I conclude that we share an extra-ordinary love.

Lyrics
17 Ordinary
You know who I'm talking to
So please stay with me for a while
Help me recognize the truth
So I will not deny my own denial
'Cause it's no ordinary day
And it's no ordinary life
And I'm not willing to accept
That we just fade into the night
And with each passion
comes a curse
But through the curse
we come to know
What our ordinary lives can show
That we're all part of
An extra-ordinary love
So if and when I trip and fall
I'm trusting will be standing near
To help me understand it all
I need to turn around
what's now and here
'Cause it's no ordinary day
And it's no ordinary life
And I'm not willing to accept
That we just fade into the night
And with each passion comes a curse
But through the curse
we come to know
What our ordinary lives can show
That we're all part of
An extra-ordinary love
