Chad Brock - Ordinary Life Lyrics
(bonnie baker/connie harrington)Shellys at the kitchen table, cup of coffee the morning paperWhen he walks in shes so surprised to see the tears in his eyesHe says, I love you, Im so sorry, but bigger dreams are waiting for meBut I cant do this anymorePay the bills, watch tv, day in, day out the same routineMow the grass, fix the leak, just to fix it againWe go to church, go to work, so picture perfect that it hurtsI feel like Im trapped inside this ordinary lifeShellys at the kitchen table, crayons, construction paperHey mom, look what I drew, its a picture of me and youAnd later when he says his prayers, she runs her fingers through his hairSo thankful for every dayThey pay their bills, watch tv, day in, day out, its all they needMow the grass, fix the leak, just to fix it againThey go to church, go to school, everyday its something newPrecious are the days as they go by in their ordinary lifePhone rings, hes calling from the airportIts midnight, hes all alone againHe says, I cant believe how much Ive missedAnd what I wouldnt giveTo pay the bills, watch tv, day in, day out the same routineMow the grass, fix the leak, just to fix it againGo to church, go to work, I cant tell you how this hurtsI miss my son, I miss my wife and my ordinary life
