Nothing Ordinary Here

Coffee on the counter
Rain against the glass

You wear my old grey sweater
Hair still half asleep
The kettle starts to whistle
Before the street is on its feet
No diamonds on the table
No castle in the hills
Just your hand on my shoulder
And the whole quiet kitchen fills

I used to chase the lightning
Used to beg the sky for signs
Now heaven looks like breakfast
With your fingers laced in mine

There's nothing ordinary here
Not the way you say my name
Not the cracked-up little hallway
Not the candle with no flame
If the world wants a miracle
Let it come and stand right here
Every breath is something holy
There's nothing ordinary here

Bills taped to the fridge door
Your shoes kicked off on the stairs
You dance with a basket of laundry
Like you haven't got a care
The radio keeps stuttering
The grey sky changes clothes
You look back at me laughing
And the whole drab Tuesday glows

I used to chase the lightning
Used to beg the sky for signs
Now heaven looks like breakfast
With your fingers laced in mine

There's nothing ordinary here
Not the way you say my name
Not the cracked-up little hallway
Not the candle with no flame
If the world wants a miracle
Let it come and stand right here
Every breath is something holy
There's nothing ordinary here

When we are old and the paint turns pale
And the photos on the rail all fade
Pour the coffee slow, let the kettle sing
The holiest thing I own
Is this ordinary morning

There's nothing ordinary here
If the world wants a miracle
Let it come and stand right here

Not the way you say my name
Not the cracked-up little hallway
Not the candle with no flame
If the world wants a miracle
Let it come and stand right here
Every breath is something holy
There's nothing ordinary here

There's nothing ordinary here
There's nothing ordinary here

There's nothing ordinary here
There's nothing ordinary here

Coffee on the counter
Nothing ordinary here
