Lyrics

[Verse 1] Everything you ever told me could have been a lie We may never have been in love Stuck on thinking that there is always something to lose Or a hit from above Or a hit from above I don't need what I'm holding What I'm holding on to, I wish I knew [Pre-Chorus] But meanwhile [Chorus] Fluctuations are aching my soul Expectation is taking its toll Expectation is taking its toll 'Cause everything you ever told me could have been a lie We may never have been in love [Verse 2] And then I will escape I'll never, ever have to see another disappointed face No one to please Every now and then, it feels like In all of the universe, there is nobody for me I told myself I wouldn't care, no, I wouldn't care But when she said she'd come 'round I combed my hair, yes, I checked my hair [Pre-Chorus] Ooh, and meanwhile Meanwhile Meanwhile [Chorus] Fluctuations are aching my soul Expectation is taking its toll Fluctuations are aching my soul Expectation is taking its toll Fluctuation does make me feel old Expectation is taking its toll Fluctuations are aching my soul Expectation is taking its toll Fluctuations are aching my soul Expectation is taking its toll [Instrumental Outro]
