"My Ordinary Life" lyrics

I'm a second son of a second son
A stranger to most, but loved by some
I've been afraid, since I was young
It takes a lot, pretending to be strong
I was born in a far away place
Childhood feels like that, in any case
My mother loves me, my father did too
But he let me down, between me and you

My ordinary life
My ordinary life

I grew up fast, or so they say
Sorrow gives you a head start, in that race
In many ways, I'm still just a child
Doing my best out here, in the wild

One day, I found my fate
I met the girl, and everything changed
We got married, in the pouring rain
Broke a glass under my heel, and shouted out her name

Her eyes are wide, deep and bright
Her touch is like sunlight, on my skin
She's kind and gentle, strong and true
She'll only see the best in you

My ordinary life
My ordinary life

Now I'm married, with children of my own
My beautiful family gave me a home
I finally know where I belong
The second son of a second son

My ordinary life
My extraordinary life
