Lyrics for I Want To Know Your Plans as interpreted by AllStarMe

I Want To Know Your Plans Lyrics
i want to know your plans
and how involved in them i am
when i go to sleep for good
will i be forgiven
and if you want roses
you can go buy a bouquet
if that just won't cut it
well, what can i say

you're what keeps me believing
the world's not long dead
strength in my bones
put the words in my head
when they pour out to paper
it's all for you
cuz that's what you do

i want to know your fear
from your feet
to the back of your ear
when they raise the landing gear
will your heart stay here
if you could forgive me
for being so brash
well you could hit me or whip me
i'd savour each lash

you're what keeps me believing
the world's not long dead
strength in my bones
put the words in my head
when they pour out to paper
it's all for you
cuz that's what you do

no more fighting
this is only a waste of our time
cuz soon we'll be leaving
will this strength still be mine
i'll look out for you
until i die
until i rot
i'll remember you
until i die
until i rot

you're what keeps me believing
the world's not long dead,
strength in my bones
put the words in my head
when they pour out to paper
it's all for you
cuz that's what you do

ugh this is the story of my life.. not really but in some cases. it's such a good song the chorus is amazing and yet depressing, i wish someone would feel that way about me. i think it's just about someone who sincerely loves someone else but who isn't quite sure how the other person is feeling. go listen to it....now.

same as my comment on Alive with the Glory of Love, there's always a boy to fit these songs. he is helping me get trhough a difficult time in my life, when he's not busy selling coke, and i am grateful for that. (and this song.)

This is a great song, I think one of my favorite lines from the CD comes from this song...When they raise the landing gear, will your heart stay here? So perfect

"and if you want roses

if that just won't cut it
well, what can i say"


i love this song because it doesn't overplay such cliche love song lyrics...he's pretty much saying, "okay i'm an asshole sometimes, but this is who i am, and i care about you"

First off, I must say this song is frickin amazing. That said, I think this song is pretty self explanatory: it's a boy that is completely and honestly in love with someone. Seems to me that it's sort of a high school romance and they just graduated and leaving for different places. The girl is going somewhere and the boy is going somewhere else. It also seems like the boy was an asshole a lot to this girl and that they had a bit of a tainted relationship with fighting and arguing. Now that the boy acknowledges that hes probably never going to see this girl again in his life he realizes how much she really means to him and how much he has always loved her. He seems to be one of those guys that doesn't really show his emotions very well and doesn't wear his heart on his sleeve. But now that they're leave each other for good he's finally telling this girl how important she's always been to him throughout all the fighting and shit they had been through. He's asking her to forgive him for all the stupid crap he's done to her....he wants to have a future with her.

this song is amazing in every way, shape & form.
i can relate to this song to a certain degree, and that's probably one of the main reasons that i really do love say anything, because they sing with such emotion you can to relate to almost any of their stuff.

I love this song and if my girl and I fight again in the future I will give her this song and we make up like we should. We are made for each other and a petty fight can never break the bond we've built.

Am I the only one that kind of sees connections to Jesus/Christianity in this song? it's probably me just reading too far in to the song haha but it really sounds like it could not only be for a lover, but also about Jesus.

no one else has commented on this, so i just though i'd say, when it says
"strength in my bones
put the words in my head
when they pour out to paper
it's all for you
cuz that's what you do"
its about him writing his songs for her, like how this person inspires his lyrics which is really cool, because when i heard this song i felt like he must be writing it for a specific person. but when you listen to it you feel like theyre playing it to you.
anyway, i love music. great song, great love song.

this song is truly amazing. every line is written perfect.
and to me this song is about guy (or girl). who has a girlfriend and she means alot to him.. but he knows its not like there gonna get married
"i'll remember you. until i die. until i rot"
like saying how she means alot to him but he knows it will eventually end and saying how good of a person she really is. and how she really is special
" you're what keeps me believing the world's not long dead" but yeah this song is extremyl good

FallenForYou,

I also got that connection. I wouldn't say Christianity though because I believe at least some of the boys are Jewish, but I definitely see the religion in this song.

The theme of forgiveness, the mentioning of taking the lashing (like Christ did when being crucified), and his belief in something that keeps him believing. While I ultimately believe that it is about a girl, I think the religious undertones are there on purpose. Maybe sort of a way of saying both a love for a girl and love for Jesus can help... just love in general can help save.
