People, we're ordinary people
We're taken for granted
No one hears what we say
Just people, ordinary people
Stand up and be counted
In every wayIf we have a little faith
Believe, there's a future
For us people, we ordinary people
It's time to remember
We all need some respectHave we forgotten who we are?
And what we're doing here?
You know a change is gonna come
If we persevere
We need strength in our hearts
We need wisdom and light
So if it's ever gonna work
Let it be tonightWe're people, ordinary people
And it's hard to imagine
How we've fallen so far
Just people, ordinary people
And if we stand together
We won't fall at allSo it's up to us
Be there for one another
That's why people, ordinary people
It's time to remember
We all need some respectHave we forgotten who we are?
And what we're doing here?
You know a change is gonna come
If we persevere
We need strength in our hearts
We need wisdom and light
So if it's ever gonna work
Let it be tonightAnd when we think we've made some peace in our time
When we know we've taken time for reflection
When we see the cards are dealt true and kind
We'll know we're not so blind,
We'll know we're not so blind
We're just ordinary, ordinary
People, ordinary people
People, ordinary people
People, ordinary people
People, ordinary peopleLet it be tonight
Let it be tonight
