All Expectations

Well, you expected me, expected me to
Be the one who ought to stay at home
And I expected you to kiss me in a
Way that I've never been kissed before
And we talked it through a thousand times, I know
And I waited up, I waited up for you with this agony and pain
And you stayed away, giving me the space you expected me to claim
Still we held each other much too tight, I know

But it was all expectations, baby, oh, I wish you'd see
All expectations, tearing down what we had, you and me
It was all expectations, baby, how hard this life can be
All expectations, all expectations, yeah

Well, they expected us, expected us to be a happy couple, I believe
And they wanted us to smile and give
A party, but they didn't see us bleed
So our love and dreams went down the drain, I know

But it was all expectations, baby, oh, I wish you'd see
All expectations, tearing down what we had, you and me

The curse was on us right from the start
I think we somehow knew it
And you think that we can't be apart
I'll talk you right on through it

But it was all expectations, baby, oh, I wish you'd see
All expectations, tearing down what we had, you and me
It was all expectations, baby, how hard this life can be
All expectations, all expectations, yeah

Here we go with all expectations
All expectations, tearing down what we had, you and me
It was all expectations, baby, how hard this life can be
All expectations, all expectations, yeah
