Best Laid Plans

I’m so done with the bruises

I was quick to pretend

I’m ready for a feeling

That I just can’t defend

 

Oh, time marches on

Still you try to make it all blend

Don’t hold back our love

I gave you the best my heart could extend

 

Sometimes in the middle of night

I miss you, god I hope I’ll be alright

I wish you could try to understand

Please know, did the best that I can

 

I see you there staring

Chances I wouldn’t deny

Precious hearts are for caring

Forget the magic was mine

 

Vultures will circle

Oh, so lions left to the lambs

Don’t stay up all night

Wasting those best laid plans

 

Sometimes in the middle of night

I miss you, god I hope I’ll be alright

I wish you could try to understand

Please know, did the best that I can

 

Sometimes in the middle of night

I miss you, god I hope I’ll be alright

Wish you could try to understand

I did the best that I can

 

Sometimes in the middle of night

I miss you, god I hope I’ll be alright

I wish you could try to understand

Please know, did the best that I can

 

Sometimes in the middle of night

I miss you, god I hope I’ll be alright

I wish you could try to understand

Please know, did the best that I can

 

Get back to a higher love

Get back to a higher love

Get back to a higher love

 

Did the best that I can

 

Get back to a higher love

Get back to a higher love

Get back to a higher love
