lyrics

If there’s a plan then I’m patient and I’m sure I’ll enjoy all the bends.
I don’t need to know the details, I only want to know how it ends.
And so if you’ve got a plan I’m sure as hell ready to hear it,
But you should best write it down.

So you came round to ask if it was my phone or me that had died,
And why whenever you write you get back out of office auto replies.
You said “If you’ve got a plan well I’m sure as hell ready to hear it,
But you should best write it down”.

So there’s a silence you’re willing to break,
But have you considered what it takes
To try and fill that void?
And as my guilt morphs into shame, will you realise just what it takes
To find your way home?

So I practiced my cursive and I sent out all my invitations,
And I dreamt of a night full of dancing and drunk revelations.
But sure enough you ended up talking about the end of the earth,
And that just gets me down.

So then you called me a taxi and insisted that I call it a night.
The strangest sense of satisfaction as you stood there waving goodbye.
And I confided in my cab driver and told him about my hesitation,
To let you into my life.

So there’s a silence you’re willing to break,
But have you considered what it takes
To try and fill that void?
And as my guilt morphs into shame, will you realise just what it takes
To find your way home?
