Ordinary Bummer

Lovely games of yesterday

Have left me with my soul today

Felicity flies out the door

When people lose their warmth

That's a very ordinary bummer

I'll hold out for summer days

Stand and laugh and run

In a quiet movie of mine

I saw a girl with eyes like fire

I had to look away

She was swearing like a sailor

And demanding her own way

That was when I knew I had to love her

I opened up my sad old eyes

And let the feelings run

With a quiet beauty of mine

Maybe sometimes we do bad things

And then other times we do good

And sometimes from something very bad

Comes something very good

In a quiet year of mine
