Extraordinary - Nicki Richards

Extraordinary Lyrics

I was a bay tree quiet and unseen
I lived in stories but inside I kept a mystery
I was a starling, nobody’s darling
Flying in perfect circles just for company
And now I’m ready and now I’m ready
And now I’m ready to be extraordinary
A midnight airplane, a window glowing
I know I am another sparkle in the sky
I shine on copper still undiscovered
But you might see me in the corner of your eye
And now I’m ready and now I’m ready
And now I’m ready to be extraordinary
Waking up to wake up someday
I am my own prey
Stopping off at a sidewalk cafe
The wind is playing in the trees
Kicking up confetti leaves
Seems as if it’s all to say

And now I’m ready, yeah now I’m ready
And now I’m ready to be
(Extraordinary)
And now I’m ready and now I’m ready
And now I’m ready to be extraordinary, extraordinary
