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
