Great Expectation

In my head, you lay down next to me
Kiss my lips, hold me carefully
Say goodbye and we know that we're drunk
But it's not the same, in reality
Say your name, but you don't get back to me
Till you got something you need me for

So I sing just to know I'm alive
And I cry all the tears I could cry
If happiness is just an illusion
You were the best I ever had
If you can't be what I want
And the things you say aren't true
All I need is the great expectation of you
Expectation of you

The tracks are running, tears go back for you
When I was young, I always had nothing but me
So I held on so long
But to each their own, you come and go a lot
It's black and white, but I go back and change the plot
Just to have you in the way I want

So I sing just to know I'm alive (I sing just)
And I cry all the tears I couldn't cry (I cry all)
If happiness is just an illusion
You were the best I ever had
If you can't be what I want (Be what I)
And the things you say are true (Are true, are true)
All I need is the great expectation of you, ah

So I sing just to know I'm alive
And I cry all the tears I couldn't cry
If happiness is just an illusion
You were the best I ever had
If you can't be what I want
And the things you say are true
All I need is the great expectation of you

All I need is
All I need is you
