Chris is really just an ordinary man And he knows he is Chances are he'll never win Varissa's hand But he still believes he will She's dressed in silk and satin She's as smooth as a pearl So he never gives a thought to any ordinary girls Sarah tells him that his head is in the clouds But she's just a friend Chances are she'll never let her secret out She's in love with him She waits at home all evening for the call He'll never make And she wakes up in the morning to another lonely day And it's all so far away Heaven knows it's never going to change It's all such a waste. He'll never know The love that she's prepared to make Still the world keeps turning Just keeps turning There's Varissa in her shiny new sedan She's like a movie star Chances are she'll never see a day of work But her friends are few and far She spends more time and money On another diamond ring Now she has so many that it hardly means a thing Chris is certain if she'd only take a chance She could not refuse
He's busy wasting his affection and romance While she's only just amused He waits at home all evening for the call she'll never make And wakes up in the morning to another lonely day And it's all so far away They should know it's never going to change It's all such a waste. He'll never know The love that's she's prepared to make Still the world keep revolving round the sun As the moon attracts the ocean The birds will seed the trees Poor Chris has a problem with reality While Sarah still waits and waits and waits For her ordinary man And he knows he is For her ordinary man And he knows he is For her ordinary man And he knows he is For her ordinary man Yes he knows he is He's just an ordinary man And he knows he is He's just an ordinary man And he knows he is He's just an ordinary man And he knows he is He's just an ordinary man And he knows The world keeps turning Just keeps turing (end of song) I lost it all I lost it all Will I ever get home I lost it all
