(Bonnie Baker/Connie Harrington) Shelly's at the
kitchen table, cup of coffee the morning paper
When he walks in she's so surprised to see the
tears in his eyes He says, "I love you, I'm
so sorry, but bigger dreams are waiting for me But
I can't do this anymore Pay the bills, watch TV,
day in, day out the same routine Mow the grass,
fix the leak, just to fix it again We go to
church, go to work, so picture perfect that it
hurts I feel like I'm trapped inside this ordinary
life" Shelly's at the kitchen table, crayons,
construction paper "Hey Mom, look what I
drew, it's a picture of me and you" And later
when he says his prayers, she runs her fingers

pay their bills, watch TV, day in, day out, it's
all they need Mow the grass, fix the leak, just to
fix it again They go to church, go to school,
everyday it's something new Precious are the days
as they go by in their ordinary life Phone rings,
he's calling from the airport It's midnight, he's
all alone again He says, "I can't believe how
much I've missed And what I wouldn't give To pay
the bills, watch TV, day in, day out the same
routine Mow the grass, fix the leak, just to fix
it again Go to church, go to work, I can't tell
you how this hurts I miss my son, I miss my wife
and my ordinary life"
