"Ordinary Love" lyrics

"Ordinary Love"

The stars in my eyes, they sing to me
Carefree and sure, naïve and warm, melody blinded by beauty and pain
I met you on the shore of a different time, a different tide
And now you're there, you're always there, and I'm not the same
I am the villain, I want more ordinary love
We're almost there, I'm almost there, letting go of the blame

Temptation is a weapon, not a cure
An exercise in ordinary love
Excuse my failure, I'm not that girl
Who blew your mind, but slowly lost the war

The dusk of my dreams, they plague my sleep
Whispering like I've done something wrong, erasure impossible to save
An accidental age, left the world behind, the world behind
And now you're there, you're always there, and I'm not the same, I am

Temptation is a weapon, not a cure
An exercise in ordinary love
Excuse my failure, I'm not that girl
Who blew your mind, but slowly lost the war
