lyrics

ORDINARY MEMORY [4:43] I didn't care a little bit 'bout the way you broke this heart of mine. Then I did and I hid it in a place you couldn't touch me where it hurt so bad I wanna cry. Hide away the heart you broke. Way back then, way back when, I was so much less of me. Now it's an ordinary memory, just an ordinary memory, it's an ordinary memory of my time with you. I picked myself right off the ground. The pieces of my heart were there and I stood 'cause I could and I headed for the door way up where the air was so much clearer then. It doesn't matter anyway 'cause I'm here and I'm near all the things that count right now and it's an ordinary memory, just an ordinary memory, it's an ordinary memory that I keep of you. Did you know? There is so much more inside of me now that I have finally set you free. Can you see? I am right here where I need to be. You couldn't take myself away from me. I gave my heart away again to someone who holds it closer now. It's so real, that it feels like this heart is whole again and you're an ordinary memory, just an ordinary memory. You're an ordinary memory that I keep with me. Did you know? There is so much more inside of me now that I have finally set you free. Can you see? I am right here where I need to be. You couldn't take myself away from me and you're an ordinary memory, just an ordinary memory. You're an ordinary memory that I keep with me. I didn't care a little bit 'bout the way you broke this heart of mine. Then I did. Yes I did.
