Great Expectations Lyrics - Eric Carmen - Eric Carmen

(Eric Carmen) 

Seems everyday 

I'm gettin' harder pressed 

To find a reason to shave 

Watchin' the hours 

Just slippin' away 

No motivation to get out of bed 

And carry on the charade 

Caught in a dream that's goin' astray 

Oh, all those great expectations 

Seems they never work out, never work out 

The way that I plan 

All those great expectations 

Why they never work out, never work out 

I can't understand

And just when I think 

That things are goin' right 

I get a call from L.A. 

Sorry to say "we're changin' your song" 

I try to reason 

But I can't get through 

They're gonna do it their way 

What can I say 

They've never been wrong 

Oh, all those great expectations 

Seems they never work out, never work out 

The way that I plan 

All those great expectations 

Why they never work out, never work out 

I can't understand

All those great expectations 

Why they never work out, never work out 

I can't understand
