Ordinary Morning

(Sheryl Crow)

 

I left a man

Asleep in the nude

My name is my pocket

With lipstick and rouge

Everything I ever wanted,

What a lovely pie you baked,

Is anybody listening/

Don't the painted birds ever fly away

 

It's just an ordinary morning

It's just an ordinary day

And I'm just an ordinary woman

Slipping away

 

The walls have been talking

About me again

I'm good for a joke, but when I awoke

The dream didn't end

Now every time I turn around

I'm only sleeping, John, is anybody out there?

Don't the wounded birds still sing?

 

It's just an ordinary morning

It's just an ordinary day

And I'm just an ordinary woman

Slipping away
