Great Expectations Lyrics


Seems everyday, I'm gettin' harder pressed
To find a reason to shave
Watchin' the hours just slippin' awayNo motivation to get out of bed
And carry on the charade
Caught in a dream that's goin' astrayOh, all those great expectations
Seems they never work out, never work out
The way that I planAll those great expectations
Why they never work out, never work out
I can't understandAnd 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 wrongOh, all those great expectations
Seems they never work out, never work out
The way that I planAll those great expectations
Why they never work out, never work out
I can't understandLife is just a game of chance
I think somebody said so

Sometimes you get a hula hoop, sometimes you get an EdselOh, all those great expectations
Seems they never work out, never work out
The way that I planAll those great expectations
Why they never work out, never work out
I can't understand

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Eric Carmen (former singer of The Raspberries) is best known for his first single All By Myself (released in 1976) and his 1987 comeback single Hungry Eyes (written by J. DeNicola and F. Previte for the Dirty Dancing soundtrack). The former, a power ballad penned by Eric, was based on a classical theme by Sergei Rachmaninoff. It was more recently covered by Celine Dion and used in the familiar opening scene of Bridget Jones's Diary.
