Lyrics

Ordinary

[Verse 1]

I’m in love with the shape of you

And the way you move

I’m in love with your off-brand shoes

And your daddy issues, see

I don’t need more than simple things

Just a simple kinda love

You don’t need to buy me fancy bling

See all I need is you 'cause

[Pre-Chorus]

Baby, I know you got me feeling something so crazy

No need to try to prove me nothing

And maybe you should leave your pride at the door

And let go 'cause

[Chorus]

I love you

There’s no need to pretend to be someone new

Your ordinary’s enough for me

Just treat me right

Baby just treat me right

Yeah

[Verse 2]

And I don’t want to give you sympathy (sympathy)

Do you know that I’m so easy to please

Lately I don’t need

Nothing but you and me

In reality none of that matters to me

[Pre-Chorus]

Baby

I know you got me feeling something

So crazy

No need to try to prove me nothing

And maybe

You should leave your pride at the door

And let go 'cause

[Chorus]

I love you

There’s no need to pretend to be someone new

Your ordinary’s enough for me

Just treat me right

Baby just treat me right

Yeah

I love you

There’s no need to pretend to be someone new

Your ordinary’s enough for me

Just treat me right

Baby just treat me right

Yeah
