[Verse 1]
The sound of her slamming that door
Hits different than it hit before
She said, "I'd get on with my life"
I ain't bettin', but I'm hopin' she's right

[Chorus]
I've got high hopes and low expectations
My glass is half empty, and that old country station
Is playin' our songs, and it's hurtin' just right
I've got low expectations, but my hopes are high
My hopes are high

[Verse 2]
When she left, she didn't look back
But I'm leavin' the door open, just a crack
The whiskey's got me riskin' a fall
But a long shot is better than no shot at all

[Chorus]
Yeah, I've got high hopes and low expectations
My glass is half empty, and that old country station
Is playin' our songs, and it's hurtin' just right
I've got low еxpectations, but my hopes are high
My hopеs are high
Oh-oh, yeah
[Bridge]
Oh, a little bit of neon
Lightens up that she's gone
Probably won't be, but it might be alright

[Chorus]
I've got high hopes and low expectations
My glass is half empty, and that old country station
Is playin' our songs, and it's hurtin' just right
Got no expectations, but my hopes are high
My hopes are high
Yeah, my hopes are high
