ordinary women and men - don white (lynn, ma) lyrics

ordinary women and men lyrics
[verse 1]
they both took their dreams and laid them to sleep
soon after their children were born
because you need to provide kids a stable environment
you need to be steady and strong
but occasionally he will wake up his dreams
to see how they feel in his hands
and he puts them away and goes to work the next day
an ordinary family man

[chorus]
ordinary people will lay down their dreams
knowing they may not see them again
they do it for their families with strength and dignity
ordinary women and men
ordinary women and men

[verse 2]
she never thought twice about devoting her life
to the care of her daughter and son
she works every night at a job she don’t like
she does whatever needs to be done
occasionally she will dress up her dreams
and ask them if they’d like to dance
and for an hour or so she lets herself hold
her beautiful dreams in her hands
[chorus]
ordinary people will lay down their dreams
knowing they may not see them again
they do it for their families with strength and dignity
ordinary women and men
ordinary women and men

[verse 3]
they sit with each other, they wait and they wonder
on the day their first grandchild is born
and the dream seems so distant, now everything is different
they know they’re right where they belong
when the child is passed to them a light passes through them
they both know they both understand
and as they cradle that baby they think they just may be
an ordinary woman and man
who are holding their dream in their hands

[chorus]
ordinary people will lay down their dreams
knowing they may not see them again
they do it for their families with strength and dignity
ordinary women and men
ordinary women and men
ordinary women and men
