[Chorus] Expectations
We hold them so close
But what do we know?
Expectations

[Verse 1] Yesterday
Love felt so easy
It all came so freely
So simple, I'd sing

[Verse 2] By evenin' time
There were words of romance
So we started to slow dance
Yeah, we danced the night away

[Chorus] Expectations
Shattered again
[From to the wind ?] So temporary
Expectations
We hold them so close
But what do we know?
Expectations

[Verse 3] Mornin' came
And without any warning
Your tears started falling
Tumblin' down your face

[Verse 4] Is it somethin' I said
Or somethin' I didn't say?
What took your smile away?
Was it different this time?

[Chorus] Expectations
Shattered again
[From to the wind ?] So temporary
Expectations
We hold them so close
But what do we know?
Expectations

[Bridge] Tomorrow's expectations will walk you through the world
If you're lookin' for the glow, well you might miss the pearl
Oh I'm learning how to build
Expectations

[Outro] Expectations
We hold them so close
Expectations
What do we know?
