Don Mescall - Not Too Ordinary Day Lyrics

There's a ship out on the road today,
As we pull the broken limbs away,
And a flag pole in the space between,
Marks the spot where someone's home had been.

Down the street where neighbours used to live,
The frame of human nature faltering,
Turned out on the curb a sad display,
On this not too ordinary day.

Chorus:
And the blessed Virgin Mary stands,
Casting forgiving eyes,
On a devastated land,
And those fortunate enough to still believe,
Could maybe find some peace,
On this not too ordinary day.

As another car goes floating by,
Almost two miles out but still in sight,
Then a little ray of hope arrives,
When a mother finds her child alive.

Chorus:
And the white washed concrete Jesus stands,
Casting forgiving eyes,
On a devastated land,
And those fortunate enough to still believe,
Could maybe find some peace.

I know time heals,
And hope measures the way that we feel,
I believe that we could find a way,
To maybe start again

To find the heart again.

'Cause today is such a pretty day,
As the sun begins to fall away,
And the moon it lays a blanket down,
On this not too ordinary day.
