what I have is nothing to my name
no property to speak of
and no trophy for my game
intangible and worthless
my assets on the page
my coffers are empty
any offer of safety has faded away
but what I have
what I have is

on an ordinary day
the extraordinary way
you take what I can give and you treasure it
on an ordinary day
the extraordinary way
you turn to me and say:
"I believe in this,"

that makes me lucky
god, I'm lucky
so much luckier than I ever thought I'd be
cause what I have
means so very little to this world
a promise that I kept
and a bridge that I saved before it burned
the sacrifice that I made
brought me to my knees
a choice that cost me everything
and set somebody else free
but what I have
is the value that you see in these things

on an ordinary day
the extraordinary way
you take what I can give and you treasure it
on an ordinary day
the extraordinary way
you turn to me and say:
"I believe in this,"

that makes me lucky
god I'm lucky
so much luckier than I ever thought I'd be
cause what I have
is the value that you see in these things

and everytime I forget those things
you bring them right back to me

with your patience
when I'm blinding mad
and your passion
when I'm really, really bad
and your eyes
taking in everything I am
and your body and soul
and the way that you know
how I treasure you

on an ordinary day
the extraordinary way
you take what I can give and you treasure it
on an ordinary day
the extraordinary way
you turn to me and say:
"I believe in this,"

that makes me lucky
god, I'm so lucky
so much luckier than I ever thought I'd be

on an ordinary day
the extraordinary way
you take what I can give and you treasure it
on an ordinary day
the extraordinary way
you turn to me and say:
"I believe in this,"
