Tommy James
"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.

(saxophone solo)

Even though time passes by as you're going through this world an everyday, ordinary girl;
A very special, ordinary girl.
