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

this song reminds me of my best friend.

"when they raise the landing gear
will your heart stay here
if you could forgive me
for being so brash"

I just heard this song for the first time. I thought it was very good. I love Say Anything's lyrics because they're unique (at least compared to other stuff I listen to). The lyrics for this song seem a little more like typical emo lyrics, but this is somewhat of an emo song. I think it's a nice change from their normal stuff (although the normal stuff is awesome too).

i also wondered if this was a reference the ending of the movie say anything where they use the planes seat belt sign as a metaphor for their relationship.

so where they say "when they raise the landing gear
will your heart stay here" this could be a similar idea

If you quote that first verse to a girl, you'r good to go.

My favorite song for that particular purpose.

Ha, he's a song writer. Of course he's going to sound honest cause he's singing to you his thoughts. He tries not to be too cliche, which is good, but his music doesn't make him a great person. I hear he's an ass, actually.

Great music though.

This is a true love song if I've ever heard one.
It's just so sweet, and it really emphasizes Max's desire for a perpetual committed relationship. The way he wants to know if he can be involved in this girl's life. :] it's just so sweeeeet. *tear*

i like how max is telling this girl that he loves him even though he's made mistakes, but being honest and not promising things that he really won't do (like the roses part, which is fucking sweet).

To me I hear "I'll buy a bouquet". anyways I interpret that in a literal way, as in: the guy will do anything for this girl. If she says roses will fix everything, he'll buy her a bouquet. If that's not enough, what can he say to make it better? ( what a cute part, hah... <3)

Anyways I think it's pretty obvious that this song is about a boy sharing his feelings for a girl he loves that he will never see again.(wow run-on sentence) I can't decide if the boy and girl were in a rocky relationshp and he's trying to say he loves her no matter what happened (as a few past people have thought) or if they were never dating and the girl maybe didnt even know the boy existed. I'm leaning towards the former though, for such lines as "If you could forgive me/ for being so brash" and "no more fighting/ this is only a waste of our time". Perhaps it's a mix of both; the boy loved the girl for a long time and only a short while ago they started dating, but the relationshp was vey rocky and upsetting. Now that the girl's leaving forever, the boy regrets all the time he wasted without her and wishes she could just understand how much he loves her. It's overall a very cute but also upsetting song... the kind where you wish the singer would make it a happy ending at the end. But of course, there is no happy ending.
