Ordinary Girl

Written by lionel richie, babyface (1996)

Performed by lionel richie



How will i know when someone loves me

How will i know if there's no one else

I'm dyin' to have someone who'll love me

But i want them to love me for myself



I looked for love in all the wrong places

I searched the moon and the stars

Found myself lost in a world of faces

The place i didn't look was my heart



I've been all around the world

Trying to find something new

Lord knows that something was you

'cause i found in myself

The one thing that's true

All i want is an ordinary girl

All i need is an ordinary girl



I just want someone i can talk to

Someone i can lean on now and then

I don't wanna lie, and pretend i'm someone else

I'm just lookin' for a friend



My heart was going through so many changes

I didn't know which way to turn

Just when i thought i had all of the answers

I found i still had so much to learn



Hook



I just want to feel lost in love forever

I want to see that look in your eyes

I hope that you'll understand what i'm saying, baby

'cause girl, i need you right by my side



Hook



Someone to love me



Spoken:

You know i've been all around the world

Trying to find someone new

You know at the end of my search

That someone was you

And i found in my heart

There can be no one but you



All i need is an ordinary girl



Your love my love

You know heaven sent you from above

Ordinary girl

You're the best thing in my life

Oh, oh girl
