Vanessa Carlton

Just a day, just an ordinary day
Just trying to get by
Just a boy, just an ordinary boy
But he was looking to the sky and
As he asked if I would come along
I started to realize
That everyday he finds just what he's looking for
Like a shooting star, he shines
And he said

Take my hand
Live while you can
And if we walk now we will
Divide and conquer this land...

And as he spoke, he spoke ordinary words (oh)
Although they did not feel (no...)
For I felt what I have not felt before
You swear those words could heal
And as I looked up into those eyes
His vision borrows mine
And I know he's no stranger
For I feel I've held him for all of time
And he said...

Take my hand
Live while you can (no...)
And if we walk now we will
Divide and conquer this land
Divide and conquer this land
Divide and conquer this land...

Please come with me
See what I see
Touch the stars
For time will not flee
Time will not flee
And you must be... (oh...)

Just a dream, just an ordinary dream
As I wake in bed
And the boy, that ordinary boy (oh)
Was it all in my head?
Did he ask if I would come along?
It all seemed so real
But as I looked to the door, I saw that boy
Standing there with a deal
And he said...

Take my hand
Live while you can (no...)
And if we walk now we will
Divide and conquer this land
Divide and conquer this land
Divide and conquer this land...

Just a day, just an ordinary day
Just trying to get by
Just a boy, just an ordinary boy
But he was looking to the sky...
