lyrics

Best Laid Plans:


There’s two reasons,
Two reasons why we’re never gonna get too far,
I’m a book full of feelings and of open revealings,
And you’re turning down the corners,

So I’m leaving,
Yeah I’m leaving with the shirt that I’ve got on my back,
And in exchange for a favour,
In shoes of a stranger,
You complain that they don’t come in black,

I wanna catch the sun,
But I’m not the only one with half a phone number on the back of my hand,
And the best laid plans,
I wanna catch the sun but I’m not the only one,
Oh I.

There’s 4200 miles to make a chance,
And I’ve had 12000 days to get it right.

Still I wanna catch the sun,
But I’m not the only one with half a phone number on the back of my hand,
And the best laid plans,
I wanna catch the sun but I’m not the only one,
Oh I.

Easy come and easy go’s not working,
Rolled up sleeves serves tea with sympathy,
Out on a melancholy road,
I’ve never felt so far from home,
Do I save my soul or leave without speaking

I wanna catch the sun,
But I’m not the only one with half a phone number on the back of my hand,
And the best laid plans,
The best laid plans,
I wanna catch the sun but I’m not the only one,
Oh I.
