Lyrics

[Verse 1]
This is the last place I thought I'd be tonight
Sittin' all by myself in the glow of a neon sign
This ain't the song I was supposed to hear
And I sure didn't think I'd be drinking this beer
[Chorus]
I was expectin' champagne, this was the day we were supposed to say I do
This was the night we'd raise our glass high and we'd all toast to me and you
This bar is nice and this beer ain't bad, but it just ain't the same
I was expectin' champagne
[Verse 2]
There's a girl at the bar and she keeps smiling at me
I could make a little small talk, maybe buy her a drink
But to lead her on, that just wouldn't be right
She'd be better off in someone else's arms tonight
[Chorus]
I was expectin' champagne, ridin' away in the back of a limousine with you
Lovin' all night until the sunlight crept into our hotel room
But I'm sitting here alone with another beer gone and one more on the way
I was expectin' champagne
I thought it'd be me and you years from now celebrating this day
I was expectin' champagne
I was expectin' champagne
