I'm no quiet wonder,
I'm no shining beauty,
I'm no special genius,
I'm just ordinary.

I don't stand out in a crowd,
I don't have a voice that everyone listens to,
And I don't have the body that makes heads turn.
I'm just ordinary.

I have the arms that welcome everyone,
I have the hands that ache to heal,
I have the quiet voice and the curtain of hair,
The ears that will listen,
The heart that will bleed for you and care.
But, I'm just ordinary.

Nothing special,
Nothing beautiful,
Just ordinary.
