From A-natural:
“July 26-31, 2021 – Jumping the timeline a bit, this song was inspired by our first “break up”. I couldn’t understand why after our first night together, this dude just ghosted me. I was crushed, because this was the first time I’d truly invested 100% of myself into someone. Everyth...
[Verse 1]
You do it for me
And I do it for you and
We do it for we
So why can’t you come thru
And take all of me
I’ll take all of you and
We mix it up
And be so complete it
Boggles my mind to think
That we connect in ways we couldn’t fathom
And still you wanna stay away
When love is waiting, what’s the matter?
[Hook]
I guess I’ll lower my expectations
Cuz you don’t really want me, no
And I been sitting patiently waiting
For you to take your love and go
Ain’t this what you said you wanted
I’m what you been looking for babe
You need to gimme an explanation
Or I’ll just lower my expectations
[Verse 2]
We talk like all the damn time
(Exchanges for hours and hours)
Hit me first with the FaceTime
(Love how you look after showers)
Disarmed all my landmines
(Only you got that kinda of power)
I lowered my defenses and I let you inside
And now my door is wide open
But only for you
You killed any chances at love for the next dude
So where’d you go (where’d you go)
I don’t know (I don’t know)
I thought love would really stick around for sure
[Hook]
I guess I’ll lower my expectations
You don’t really want me, no
And I been sitting patiently waiting
For you to take your love and go
Ain’t this what you said you wanted
Ain’t I what you been looking for babe
You need to gimme an explanation
Or I’ll just lower my expectations
[Bridge]
I’ve been told that you reap just what you sow
But when I plant love the seeds grow into mold
No more wasting precious time to be left so cold
Guess that love for me is unwritten
A story untold
[Vamp]
What you expect
Got me upset
What you expect
Got me upset
Lowered expectations
What you expect
Got me upset
Lowered expectations
What you expect
Got me upset
Lowered expectations
What you expect
Got me upset
(You do it for me and I do it for you and)
What you expect
Got me upset
(We do it for we, why, why can’t you come through)
What you expect
Got me upset
Lowered expectations
What you expect
A story untold
Got me upset
A story untold
Lowered expectations
