Ordinary Man
Gordon Lightfoot Try to understand I'm not your ordinary man, still I can't deny You go with me everywhere When I'm dreamin' you still share my lonely nights It's that lonesome, restless feelin' that you feel under the gun Try to see my side It's not your ordinary pride that keeps drivin' me on And it leads me to the highways but it keeps my body warm I get so lonesome knowin' you could be around And as I wander to the cities and the towns And when the show is over, there's a holiday motel Another empty bottle and another tale to tell Try to comprehend I'm not your ordinary friend at the end of my life Try to see my side I would pray that I could be Returning to the shelter of your love It's not your ordinary pride that keeps drivin' me on It's that lonesome, restless feelin' that you feel under the gun And as I wander to the cities and the towns And it leads me to the highways but it keeps my body warm And when the show is over, there's a holiday motel I get so lonesome knowin' you could be around Another empty bottle and another tale to tell Try to understand You go with me everywhere I'm not your ordinary man, still I can't deny I remember all the good times Like a shadow in the gloom sallysally@usa.netThere's a ghost in every room |
