Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
I fear that I'm ordinary, just like everyone
To lie here and die among the sorrows
Adrift among the days
For everything I ever said
And everything I've ever done is gone and dead
As all things must surely have to end
And great lovers will one day have to part
I know that I am meant for this world
My life has been extraordinary
Blessed and cursed and won
Time heals but I'm forever broken
By and by the way...
Have you ever heard the words
I'm singing in these songs?
It's for the girl I've loved all along
Can a taste of love be so wrong
As all things must surely have to end
And great lovers will one day have to part
I know that I am meant for this world
And in my mind as I was floating
Far above the clouds
Some children laughed I'd fall for certain
For thinking that I'd last forever
But I knew exactly where I was

And I knew the meaning of it all
And I knew the distance to the sun
And I knew the echo that is love
And I knew the secrets in your spires
And I knew the emptiness of youth
And I knew the solitude of heart
And I knew the murmurs of the soul
And the world is drawn into your hands
And the world is etched upon your heart
And the world so hard to understand
Is the world you can't live without
And I knew the silence of the world
I fear that I'm ordinary, just like everyone  To lie here and die among the sorrows  Adrift among the days  For everything I ever said  And everything I've ever done is gone and dead  As all things must surely have to end  And great lovers will one day have to part  I know that I am meant for this world  My life has been extraordinary  Blessed and cursed and won  Time heals but I'm forever broken  By and by the way...  Have you ever heard the words  I'm singing in these songs?  It's for the girl I've loved all along  Can a taste of love be so wrong  As all things must surely have to end  And great lovers will one day have to part  I know that I am meant for this world  And in my mind as I was floating  Far above the clouds  Some children laughed I'd fall for certain  For thinking that I'd last forever  But I knew exactly where I was     And I knew the meaning of it all  And I knew the distance to the sun  And I knew the echo that is love  And I knew the secrets in your spires  And I knew the emptiness of youth  And I knew the solitude of heart  And I knew the murmurs of the soul  And the world is drawn into your hands  And the world is etched upon your heart  And the world so hard to understand  Is the world you can't live without  And I knew the silence of the world
