Ordinary Man
hardly knew him when you wanted to give him all your love
he saw right through you and knew that he could do just what he wants
like any ordinary man
tried to get to you
being cool
dark and lovely he was like poetry in motion when he moved
my heart was hungry when he smiled staring me down across the room
like any ordinary man
tried to get to you
being cool
but he never showed his hands
till the clock struck twelve
and the morning light
and passion ruled his mind
only time will tell if his move was right
and the morning sun will shine
it's every love light on too
make sure you see it through
somebody is watching what you do
clime to the danger suddenly
would this be my only chance?
could I love a stranger?
could he love me?
is it just a one night stand?
like any ordinary man
tried to get to you
being cool
but he never showed his hands
he saw right through you and knew that he could do just what he wants
like any ordinary man
tried to get to you
being cool
dark and lovely he was like poetry in motion when he moved
my heart was hungry when he smiled staring me down across the room
like any ordinary man
tried to get to you
being cool
but he never showed his hands
till the clock struck twelve
and the morning light
and passion ruled his mind
only time will tell if his move was right
and the morning sun will shine
it's every love light on too
make sure you see it through
somebody is watching what you do
clime to the danger suddenly
would this be my only chance?
could I love a stranger?
could he love me?
is it just a one night stand?
like any ordinary man
tried to get to you
being cool
but he never showed his hands
