Lyrics

No Expectations

[Intro] 1, 2, ready, go [Verse 1] Take me to the station And put me on a train I got no expectations To pass through here again [Verse 2] Once I was a rich man But now I am so poor But never in my sweet short life Have I felt like this before [Verse 3] Your heart is like a diamond You throw your pearls at swine And as I watch you leaving me You pack my peace of mind [Harmonica Solo] [Verse 4] Our love was like the water That splashes on a stone Our love is like our music It's here, and then it's gone [Verse 5] So take me to the airport And put me on a plane I got no expectations To pass through here again [Outro] Alright Yeah, boogie
