Make a Plan Lyrics by Diane Schuur

Schuur Thing

1985

[Verse 1]
Why don't we take a little time to make us a plan with a little more time we can do what we can put the whole thing back
Back together again
Why don't we wait a little longer to light that fuse we got nothing to gain and everything to lose we gotta do what we can
To get together again

[Pre-Chorus]
We got one wheel on the shoulder and we're about to lose control

[Chorus]
Make a plan, we gotta do what we can we gotta get ourselves back together again
Wait a little bit longer to light that fuse we got nothing to gain and everything to lose

[Verse 2]
We gotta go somewhere just me and you and do a few things that we used to do and take a little time and just try to unwind
Cause if we don't we might jump the gun yeah we gotta stop what might become another losing fight
Let's get together tonight

[Pre-Chorus]
We got one wheel on the shoulder and we're about to lose control

[Chorus]
Make a plan, we gotta do what we can we gotta get ourselves back together again
Wait a little bit longer to light that fuse we got nothing to gain and everything to lose

[Instrumental Break]

[Pre-Chorus]
We got one wheel on the shoulder, we're about to lose control

[Chorus]
Make a plan, we gotta do what we can we gotta get ourselves back together again
Wait a little bit longer to light that fuse we got nothing to gain and everything to lose

[Chorus]
Make a plan, we gotta do what we can we gotta get ourselves back together again
Wait a little bit longer to light that fuse we got nothing to gain and everything to lose

[Chorus]
Make a plan, we gotta do what we can we gotta get ourselves back together again
Wait a little bit longer to light that fuse we got nothing to gain and everything to lose
