Tommy James And The Shondells

ordinary girl

And she sits with a cup of coffee
Lights another cigarette
Stares out the kitchen window
And wonders if that's all she gets
She thinks about back in high school
Turns on the radio

But the old songs just remind her
What she was a long time ago
Ooh, she's lookin' for a rainbow, all she knows
Ooh, lookin' for a magic rainbow day in the snow
Hey, girl, don't be so hard on yourself

You're only like everyone else
And we all go through those changes
Hey, girl, heaven still waits in your eyes
Even though time passes by as you're
Going through this world an everyday, ordinary girl
And she looks at the ring on her finger
Thinks about her wedding day

That just gets her dreaming about the boy that got away
And a kiss from a distant summer still lights up her eyes
And it brings back all the feelings
Like a thousand fireflies; ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh, she's lookin' for a rainbow, all she knows
Ooh, lookin' for a magic rainbow day in the snow

Girl, don't be so hard on yourself
You're only like everyone else
And we all go through those changes
Hey, girl, heaven still waits in your eyes
Even though time passes by as you're
Going through this world an everyday, ordinary girl
Even though time passes by as you're going
Through this world an everyday, ordinary girl
A very special, ordinary girl
