"What'd You Expect" lyrics

"What'd You Expect"

Looking for it in the flowers on your nightstand
On the right side of your bed
Feel the pain from all the laughter
And the memories of the nights we never had

Said you couldn't see it coming
But baby girl, what'd you expect
Never played by the rules
You were always a wreck
Had to play it so cool
Decided it's for the better
But that don't mean it won't be tough
You say we grew up together
Baby, we're still growing up

I still think about your day trip out to Knoxville
When you were getting sick of seeing my face
So was it something bout the wine nights
And the good cries that could always convince you to stay

Said you couldn't see it coming
But baby girl, what'd you expect
Never played by the rules
You were always a wreck
Had to play it so cool
Decided it's for the better
But that don't mean it won't be tough
You say we grew up together
Baby, we're still growing up

Decided it's for the better
But that don't mean it won't be tough
You say we grew up together
Baby, we're still growing up
Decided it's for the better
But that don't mean it won't be tough
You say we grew up together
