[00:15.37]Shelly's at the kitchen table, cup of coffee the morning paper
[00:23.41]When he walks in she's so surprised to see the tears in his eyes
[00:31.00]He says, "I love you, I'm so sorry, but bigger dreams are waiting for me
[00:38.53]But I can't do this anymore
[00:45.18]
[00:45.63]Pay the bills, watch TV, day in, day out the same routine
[00:52.64]Mow the grass, fix the leak, just to fix it again
[01:00.28]We go to church, go to work, so picture perfect that it hurts
[01:09.45]I feel like I'm trapped inside this ordinary life"
[01:20.03]
[01:26.37]Shelly's at the kitchen table, crayons, construction paper
[01:33.85]"Hey Mom, look what I drew, it's a picture of me and you"
[01:41.25]And later when he says his prayers, she runs her fingers through his hair
[01:48.96]So thankful for every day
[01:55.87]
[01:56.06]They pay their bills, watch TV, day in, day out, it's all they need
[02:03.17]Mow the grass, fix the leak, just to fix it again
[02:10.82]They go to church, go to school, everyday it's something new
[02:20.04]Precious are the days as they go by in their ordinary life
[02:30.20]
[02:33.87]Phone rings, he's calling from the airport
[02:40.07]It's midnight, he's all alone again
[02:46.74]He says, "I can't believe how much I've missed
[02:55.56]And what I wouldn't give
[03:01.76]
[03:02.72]To pay the bills, watch TV, day in, day out the same routine
[03:09.92]Mow the grass, fix the leak, just to fix it again
[03:17.48]Go to church, go to work, I can't tell you how this hurts
[03:26.84]I miss my son, I miss my wife and my ordinary life"
