Plans Songtext
von The Submarines

Stand up straight and close your eyes
Don′t look now, the evening sun has burned through everyone
We're silhouettes, we′re dark as night
Why'd we let the sunshine in when we began?
Burned through our hearts and all our plans

But if you don't try you might just succeed at nothing
Sometimes failure requires a certain effort
Sparks fly past your averted eyes
So love just comes and goes

Hold your hand up to the sky
If you could, you′d gather every star you′d ever wished on
Interrogating every one
Why'd they have to let you down when
You′d confided all you want is love to light you up


But if you don't try you might just succeed at nothing
Sometimes failure requires a certain effort
Sparks fly past your averted eyes
So love just comes and goes

Ah, ah
Ah, ah, a-ah
Now when you look at the stars are you just thinking about
How long ago they burned out
When you′re so far away it takes time to see change
These things are bigger than we are

And if you'd try this might just amount to something
There′s still danger in never getting hopes up again
Sparks fly and love may come and go but
Your light's much brighter than you know

Don't try, you just might succeed at nothing
Sometimes failure requires a certain effort
Sparks fly past your averted eyes
And love just comes and goes

Oh, oh oh oh, oh
Oh, oh oh oh, oh
Oh oh, oh oh oh
