PLANS

We had plans

Two kids and a dog

And a yard with a white picket fence

Too young too broke

What they said

Guessing it got to our heads

Put this and that on hold for you

Had doors open I closed for you

When weather got too cold for you

We never stood a chance

Broke up like the high school band

How could you forget

We had plans

Still don’t understand how we

Got so close and we got so far

Still don’t understand how falling was so easy

But landing was so hard

How you said you needed space

But you moved to the city where you can’t see the stars

Only see ‘em painted in the street

Or wasted at the bar

We had plans

Two kids and a dog

And a yard with a white picket fence

Too young too broke

What they said

Guessing it got to our heads

Put this and that on hold for you

Had doors open I closed for you

When weather got too cold for you

We never stood a chance

Broke up like the high school band

How could you forget

We had plans

 We had it all planned out

All mapped out

Wanted the white fence, white dress

Dressed all in black now

Tried to let you know I couldn’t keep you close

Got money on my mind

Said this a heart of gold

If you want it then it’s yours

What you got me waiting for

Like you don’t even miss me

I don’t even know you anymore

Give our love a chance

I said understand

Give your heart to someone else

Say you can’t

‘Cause we had plans

Two kids and a dog

And a yard with a white picket fence

Too young too broke

What they said

Guessing it got to our heads

Put this and that on hold for you

Had doors open I closed for you

When weather got too cold for you

No, we never stood a chance

Broke up like the high school band

How could you forget

We had plans
