Ordinary Girl Lyrics - Babyface

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
