Lyrics :
The sea wants to kiss the golden shore
The sunlight warms your skin
All the beauty that's been lost before wants to find us again
I can't fight you any more, it's you I'm fighting for
The sea throws rocks together but time leaves us polished stones
We can't fall any further if
We can't feel ordinary love
And we can not reach any higher,
If we can't deal with ordinary love
Birds fly high in the summer sky and rest on the breeze
The same wind will take care of you and I
We'll build our house in the trees
Your heart is on my sleeve
Did you put it there with a magic marker?
For years I would believe that the world couldn't wash it away
'Cause we can't fall any further if
We can't feel ordinary love
And we can not reach any higher,
If we can't deal with ordinary love
Are we tough enough for ordinary love?
We can't fall any further if
We can't feel ordinary love
And we can not reach any higher,
If we can't deal with ordinary love
We can't fall any further, if
We can't feel ordinary love
And we can't reach any higher,
If we can't deal with ordinary love
