Ordinary Girl

About Ordinary Girl

"Ordinary Girl" is a song by English singer Alison Moyet, released in 1987 as the third single from her second studio album Raindancing. It was written by Moyet, Jess Bailey and Rick Driscoll, and produced by Jimmy Iovine. Despite the Top 10 success of the first two singles from Raindancing, "Ordinary Girl" failed to enter the UK Top 40, reaching No. 43. It remained within the Top 100 for four weeks. A music video was filmed to promote the single. Moyet performed the song on ITV's short lived music show The Roxy, as well as the French & Saunders Show. She also performed the song on "Pop Goes New Year 1987" aboard HMS Royal. She performed two other songs on the ship, "Is This Love?" and "Blow Wind Blow", both from the same album. The single's B-side is "Palm Of Your Hand (Cloak and Dagger)", which was exclusive to the single. It was written and produced by Dan Hartman. more »

She left on a Sunday afternoon.
It is the only way for everyone concerned
She said.
And I could only ask her why

But she just smiled and told me
One day I would learn.

Don't you worry
This will all make sense tomorrow.
Don't be sorry
That everything we shared will fade away.
There's so much more to see in each new day.
They'd never understand
I'm not an ordinary girl.

She took nothing but her clothes.
Taking more would just remind her of her past
She said.
I thought I'd never laugh again
On the day I said goodbye to my best friend.

Don't you worry
This will all make sense tomorrow. . . .

Don't you worry
This will all make sense tomorrow.
Don't be sorry
That everything we shared will fade away.
There's so much more to see in each new day.
And now I understand
She's just an ordinary girl.
She's just an ordinary girl.
