I hope I got it right, It sounds pretty good when I play it!!!
Shelley's at the kitchen table, cup of coffee and the morning paper
He walks in she's so surprised, to see the tears in his eyes
He says I love you I'm so sorry, but bigger things are waiting for me
And I can't take this anymore...
I pay the bills, watch tv, day in day out the same routine
I mow the grass, fix the leak just to fix it again
We go to church go to work, so picture perfect that it hurts
I feel like I'm trapped inside this ordinary life.
Shelley's at the kitchen table, crayons and construction paper
Hey mom look what I drew, it's a picture of me and you
Then at night when she says their prayers
She runs her fingers through his hair
So thankful for every day...
(chorus)
They pay their bills, watch tv, day in day out it's all they need
They mow the grass, fix the leak just to fix it again
They go to church, go to school, everyday it's something new
Precious are the days as they go by, in their ordinary lives.
Phone rings he's calling from the airport
It's midnight he's all alone again
He'says I can't believe how much I've missed
And what I wouldn't give...
(chorus)
To pay the bills, watch tv, day in day out the same routine
To mow the grass, fix the leak just to fix it again
To go to church, go to work I can't tell you how this hurts
I miss my son I miss my wife, and my ordinary life!
