Steven Fedrick: Clips & Lyrics
Without Expectations
This song is autobiographical, sort of Fedrick's own Ballad of John and Yoko using the country genre.
Without Expectation
Music & Lyrics by Steven Fedrick
We fell together so easily
They say opposites attract
You spied me across that Ft. Worth dance floor
There was no looking back
We were old enough to know better
But we closed our eyes and took a chance
You were looking hard for someone you could settle down with
I was a fool, a fool for romance
All in all it was a good time in my life
All in all it was a good, good time for loving you, loving you.
Remember that trip through New Mexico
How I felt small beneath that mountain sky
You took me up to one of your most favorite places
I tried to see it through your eyes.
And I gave you everything I needed from you
That was the losing game
You warned me then not to project my expectations
We were not one and the same
For all my disappointments I had only myself to blame
repeat chorus
(bridge)
Where does love go, How does love grow
Without expecations?
Where does love go, how can love grow?
I don't know, no, no, I don't know.
We fell apart so gracefully
The end shocked everyone but us
I guess we both came to the same inevidablility
We, for me, were not enough
So I turned around and faced our failure
Even though there was so much left to lose
See there was still a part of my heart
That cared deeply about you
It took every ounce of courage
To say, "We're through".
repeat chorus
