Great Expectations

Our love is in Latin I'll never learn to speak it But I'll find it hidden In my French and my English A language we never spoke But heard in our silence My innocence was stolen And I'm still trying to find it We had great expectations A detour from our destination Some terrible miscommunication A transforming deviation My tears were in oil A painting too long to dry So the sky opened up And started to cry You were my colors My favorite shade of blue I've tried other people But the one I want is you We had great expectations A detour from our destination Some terrible miscommunication A transforming deviation Dear Phillip You'll know where to find me Still stuck in your Heart But please don't mind me You were my first love And I fear you're the last So please don't let our past stay past We had great expectations A heart racing anticipation Of all things alone and taken But you turned my city into a nation
