The plan

Oh it's so hard to believe like a bad dream you cannot wake from
Cause we used to sing songs together and weather the changes that come

If life apart is impossible
And I know anything's possible
We'll wait five years and meet on the very spot we once called home

And I went from passionate lover to father and brother to her
And she kept her magic from me for what seemed like an eternity

If life apart is impossible
And I know anything's possible
We'll wait five years and meet on the very spot we once called home

Now you have got to understand
We had dropped each other's hand so long ago
And sunk into a deep despair
Nobody in love should ever know or feel
It's sad but only in the sense
We were young and innocent back then

And we were a storybook couple, the kind of stuff dreams are made on
Yeah living proof that love exists, we could have inspired you

But something failed in our master plan
And far away our happiness ran
It took so long to see what I'd really never seen before

Now you have got to understand
We had dropped each other's hand so long ago
And sunk into a deep despair
Nobody in love should ever know or feel
It's sad but only in the sense
We were young and innocent back then

I never once towards the end saw the friend that she could have been
And she was too angry to see all the patience she needed from me

If life apart is impossible
And I know anything's possible
We'll wait five years and meet on the very spot we once called home

Now you have got to understand
We had dropped each other's hand so long ago
And sunk into a deep despair
Nobody in love should ever know or feel
It's sad but only in the sense
We were young and innocent back then
And if there is a change of heart let me introduce you to the plan.
