Well you expected me,
Expected me to be the one who loved 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 if you think that we can't be apart i'll talk right on through it.
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,
It was all expectations, baby
how hard this life can be
All expectations, all expectations yeah
Here we go and all expectations
All expectations, tearing down what we had, you and me,
It was all expectations, baby how hard this life can be (how hard)
All expectations (it was all expectations), all expectations yeah
