No Expectations Lyrics - Beth Orton

(duet with Ryan Adams / Rolling Stones Cover) 

Take me to the station and put me on a train 

I've got no expectations to pass through here again 

Once I was a rich man and now I am so poor 

But never in my sweet, short life have I felt like this before 

Your heart is like a diamond, you throw your pearls at swine 

And as I watch you leaving me, you pack my peace of mind 

Our love was like the water that splashes on a stone 

Our love was like our music, it's here and then it's gone 

So take me to the airport and put me on a plane
