From the recording C'est La Vie
Lyrics
When the fire no longer burns
And the wheels refuse to turn
When the past is a refuge that brings you no comfort
When the pain will not let go
And the tears refuse to flow
When you find yourself dreaming you were someone else
It’s time to make peace with your maker
It’s time to reinvent yourself
This is no ordinary life, it’s yours and it’s mine
This is no ordinary heart, it used to be mine
When the lies no longer sting
And the truth always evades you
What exactly do you hold on to
When the anger suffocates you
And your dreams no longer move you
When you find yourself cursing this life under your breath
It’s time to reach out to your maker
It’s time to liberate yourself
This is no ordinary life, it’s yours and it’s mine
This is no ordinary heart, it used to be mine
Let it be today, let it be tonight
Let us step together into the light
Remove the veil that clearly robs you blind
Uncover the truth, let yourself see
Unfurl the sail and let your spirit shine
Open your eyes, set yourself free
Let yourself be, you’ve got to be free
This is no ordinary life - This is no ordinary heart
