she lives in a house in london
she lives in a house in town
and waiting to greet the children
she sits around in her dressing gown
are these the days of our lifes?
He drives through the morning traffic
sideways and up and down
says the girls are so tragic
in every provincial town
are these the days of our lives?
are these the bells that chime and ring
the wedding day, the children sing
"please do not throw confetti"
living in every city
among somebody else's clothes
a christmas tree without angels
and wiping my bloody nose
are these the days of our lives?
an ordinary miracle is all we really need
an ordinary miracle you and me
