[Verse 1]

If I go missing and they start searching

Maybe they'll find a man I'm looking for

What happens when they call your phone

Tell you I'm gone but someone is coming home

[Chorus]

Forget expectations, baby

I don't want them, they're making me crazy

I know, I don't always wanna do it for you

I don't always wanna do it for you-ooh-ooh

[Post-Chorus]

So I'm not your man and I can't be

I can work it out if you let me

[Verse 2]

Will you find a replacement if I have changed

And you don't like the man that I've become

Or will you let me be myself and find comfort

In the home where we grew up

[Chorus]

Forget expectations, baby

I don't want them, they're making me crazy

I know, I didn't always wanna do it for you

I didn't always wanna do it for you-ooh-ooh

[Post-Chorus]

So I'm not your man and I can't be

I can work it out if you let me

This is not your plan but it can be

I can work it out if you let me

[Bridge]

I'm sorry if I don't live up to the way I should be living

If you don't like the way I am I guess I should be leaving

[Outro]

So I'm not your man and I can't be

I can work it out if you let me

This is not your plan but it can be

I can work it out if you let me
