[Verse 1]
She is a mystery
What a sight to see
Just an ordinary girl
She is like no one else
So far beyond our help
Just an ordinary girl
[Verse 2]
She packed her bags one summer day
And in the bright light walked away
Just an ordinary girl
She said, "There must be more than this?"
Then solemnly blew one last kiss
Just an ordinary girl
[Chorus]
But sweet dreams were never meant to be
She turned away one minute
All her dreams just vanished with it
She is drowning in a sea of possibilities
Leaving her so ordinary
[Verse 3]
She headed for L.A
She thought she'd write a screenplay
Just an ordinary girl
She sucked the marrow out of life
Down at the go-go bar each night
Just an ordinary girl
[Verse 4]
She wanted all her demons gone
She started drinking all alone
When she got home at 6 am
Callin' up long forgotten friends
She said, "I love you so much, man
What happened to all of our plans?"
They just hung up on her
It's really not extraordinary
[Chorus]
Dreams slip by so easily
We turn away one minute
All our dreams just vanish with it
She is drowning in the sea of mediocrity
Leaving us so ordinary
[Outro]
She is a mystery
She is a lot like me
Just an ordinary girl
