Ordinary People

People, we're ordinary people We're taken for granted No one hears what we say Just people, ordinary people Stand up and be counted In every way If we have a little faith Believe, there's a future For us people, we ordinary people It's time to remember We all need some respect Have we forgotten who we are? And what we're doing here? You know a change is gonna come If we persevere We need strength in our hearts We need wisdom and light So if it's ever gonna work Let it be tonight We're people, ordinary people And it's hard to imagine How we've fallen so far Just people, ordinary people And if we stand together We won't fall at all So it's up to us Be there for one another That's why people, ordinary people It's time to remember We all need some respect Have we forgotten who we are? And what we're doing here? You know a change is gonna come If we persevere We need strength in our hearts We need wisdom and light So if it's ever gonna work Let it be tonight And when we think we've made some peace in our time When we know we've taken time for reflection When we see the cards are dealt true and kind We'll know we're not so blind We'll know we're not so blind We're just ordinary, ordinary People, ordinary people People, ordinary people People, ordinary people People, ordinary people Let it be tonight Let it be tonight
