Great Expectations
Self-belief for me, it’s not enough for you
Everyone in adoration, maybe you want that too
Then she says she wants to walk outside
I’m feeling good ‘cause in me she can confide
Yet … sedately pondering her words
Is changing aspirations when we are in love
In the midst of life, she says she wants to be
I express my longing always to be free
She turns away, I can see she’s not amused
I try to clarify, it leaves her more confused
I follow her in silence, knowing it’s enough
To be in pursuit of someone with whom you’re in love
Great expectations
Make me feel confused and so surreal
But you, you make me feel sublime
You cloud the issue left behind
Away let me hide away
Away let me hide away
Great expectations
Make me feel confused and so surreal
But you, you make me feel sublime
You cloud the issue left behind the way
Let me hide away
Away let me hide away
Sometimes I feel pressure from society
Conventions congregate, invite themselves for tea
They ask about my future, want to know my plans
I tell them what I want, but they don’t understand
We both are none the wiser nothing has been said
Without … would be dead
Great Expectations make me feel confused and so surreal
But you, you make me feel sublime
You cloud the issue left behind
Great expectations (to fade)
