Ordinary

An ordinary girl
Meets an ordinary boy
It starts that way until one day
They're overcome with joy

This ordinary girl
Will soon become his bride
And when they marry this ordinary
Boy is filled with pride

This ordinary girl
Is soon a mother to be
Their family grew, these ordinary two
Into a family of three

This ordinary girl
Would soon give birth once more
This ordinary three would come to be
An ordinary family of four

This ordinary girl
And this ordinary boy
Are special it appears 'cause for thirty years
Their marriage is filled with joy
