"Great Expectation" lyrics

In my head, you lay down next to me
Kiss my lips, hold me carefully
Say goodbye and feel all the withdrawals
But it's not the same in reality
I say your name, but you don't get back to me
'Til you got something you need me for

So, I sing just to know I'm alive
And I cried all the tears I could cry
If happiness is just an illusion
You were the best I ever had
If you can't be what I want
And the things you say aren't true
All I need is the great expectation of you
Expectation of you

The tracks of my tears go back for years
When I was young, I've always had the fears
One would leave, so, I held on so long
But to each their own, you come and go a lot
It's black and white, but I go back and change the plot
Just to have you in the way I want

So, I sing just to know I'm alive
And I cried all the tears I could cry
If happiness is just an illusion
You were the best I ever had
If you can't be what I want
And the things you say aren't true
All I need is the great expectation of you

Cry my tears and let them dry
Cry my tears and testify
You exist inside my mind
You so, so I

Sing just to know I'm alive
And I cried all the tears I could cry
If happiness is just an illusion
You were the best I ever had
If you can't be what I want
And the things you say aren't true
All I need is the great expectation of you

All I need is
All I need is you
