Extraordinary Lyrics

I was a daydream
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

[Chorus:]
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 uncovered
Still undiscovered
But you must see me in the corner of your eye

[Chorus]

Waking up to week of Sundays
I am my own parade
Stopping off at a sidewalk cafe
The wind is playing up in the trees
Kicking up confetti leaves
Seems as if it's all to say

[Chorus x2]

Cover art for Extraordinary lyrics by Mandy Moore

Here's what Mandy Moore says about this song: "There are times when everyone hits a point of wanting and knowing they can go beyond what they deem their limits to be. Personally, it took me a while to come to this conclusion and it was quite a bold move for me to make. I consider myself to be pretty shy and have trouble expressing myself in certain situations, so writing this song is one of the most honest, humble things I have ever done and said in my life. To anyone. It felt as good to sing it as it did to write it."
