Oui 3 - Great Expectation lyrics

Desperation scars her face Pushing herself to stay with the pace Kidding herself that any day now Luck is gonna help her keep the vow Somewhere down the line she got side tracked And she's far too proud To take the ride back home Till she can do it in style So for now she's the Queen in Exile Great expectations Oh Mother aren't you proud of me now? The girl ain't ready to throw in the towel She wouldn't change even if she did know how Great expectations Oh Father aren't you proud of me now? How can she tell if she's sinking or swimming If she's forgotten how it was in the beginning But once she gets her mind in the right frame She'll streak ahead in this game of bluff That she's playing with fate She's a woman you should never underestimate Because of the fact that when all else fails The pa**age of time is gonna tip the scales Great expectations Oh Mother aren't you proud of me now? She ain't about to throw in th towel She wouldn't change if she did know how She's got the faith, trust in a power unknown Sticking to the job like a dog to a bone Bone, is what this song gets close to She's not living it the way that she's supposed to She is supposed to be living by the blue print Pa Pa's on standby dropping hints And questions that defy response Try to be the daughter that your Mother wants CONGRATULATIONS CONGRATULATIONS Great expectations Oh Mother aren't you proud of me now? Great expectations Oh Father aren't you proud of me now? WE LOVE YOU WE LOVE YOU (OF COURSE WE DO!) WE LOVE YOU Great expectations Oh Mother aren't you proud of me now? WE LOVE YOU I'TS ONLY BECAUSE WE LOVE YOU MY DEAR!
