All we do, all we say, all is gone in an instant We are temporary, we are borrowers and beggars Here and now this is it, need to live in the moment We are temporary, we are children of the desert Just grains of sand upon the shore We are ordinary, we are ordinary people So hold my hand, there is no more We are ordinary, we are ordinary people At the end of the day, when the last light is fading We are temporary, we are cast into the maelstrom So we go with the flow, blown around by the weather We are temporary, we are leaves upon the storm
Floating, we are weightless in the sky Victims of our fates we have to try Who knows how far we go when we die? Just grains of sand upon the shore We are ordinary, we are ordinary people So hold my hand, there is no more We are ordinary, we are ordinary people Do your best with the cards you were dealt at the table We are temporary, we are ordinary people Make the most of your time, live you're life while you're able We are temporary, we are ordinary people
