Make A Plan To Love Me

I found a song by Bright Eyes called "Make a Plan to Love Me", which really intrigues me. How can you make a plan to love someone? Is it as simple and rational as all that? Can you make a plan to love someone, say in a month or six months? Or is this the 21st century relationship? This is very much a professional issue for me, as a planner. I mean, how much can you actually plan? Can anyone explain?


Make A Plan To Love Me

I heard you're scheming new pyramids
Another big idea to get you rich
Make a plan to love me sometime soon

You said you got a foot in the door
You buy and then you sell, you buy some more
Make a plan to love me sometime soon

Life is too short
Death doesn't ask
It don't owe you that

Some things you lose
You don't get back
So just know what you have

And make a plan to love me sometime soon

First you want to ride off into the Sun
Then you want to shoot straight to the Moon
Make a plan to love me sometime soon

When you are young the world is a Ferris Wheel
I know we will grow old it is lovely, still
Make a plan to love me sometime soon

Life is too short
To be a fool
I don't owe you that

Do what you feel
Whatever is cool
But I just have to ask

Will you make a plan to love me?
Will you make a plan to love me?
Will you make a plan to love me sometime soon?
