Vanessa Carlton - Ordinary Day (Divide Conquer) LYRICS

Just a day, just an ordinary day

Just trying to get by

Just a boy, just an ordinary boy

But he was looking to the sky

And as he asked if I would come along

I started to realize

That every day he finds just what he's looking for

And like a shooting star he shines

And he said



Take my hand

Live while you can

If we walk now we will

Divide and conquer this land



And as he spoke, he spoke ordinary words

Although they did not feel now

For I felt what I had not felt before

And you'd swear those words could heal

And as I looked up into those eyes

His vision borrows mine

And I know he's no stranger for I feel

I've held him for all of time

And he said



Take my hand

Live while you can, now

And if we walk now we will

Divide and conquer this land

Divide and conquer this land

Divide and conquer this land



Please come with me

See what I see

Touch the stars for time will not flee

Time will not flee

And you must be

oh

Just a dream, just an ordinary dream

As I wake in bed

And the boy, that ordinary boy

Oh was it all in my head?

Didn't he ask if I would come along?

It all seemed so real

But as I looked to the door I saw that boy

Standing there with a deal

And he said



Take my hands

Live while you can

And if we walk now we will

Divide and conquer this land

Divide and conquer this land

Divide and conquer this land



Just a day, just an ordinary day

Just trying to get by

Just a boy, just an ordinary boy

But he was looking to the sky
