lyrics

There are people who won’t see your worth
Tell you, “Go an live in the center of the Earth”
As for me I don’t believe in Heaven or Hell
I just think that we should treat each other well
Tonight the sun will go to sleep
The teabag will turn in the teacup and begin to steep
The radio dial will make only one final sweep
We’ll make secret plans for ourselves that we’ll promise to keep

Secret plans, secret plans
Riding by night in a slow caravan
Secret plans, secret plans
Hiding the light of the stars in the palms of your hands
Secret plans

You are young now, look what is ahead
All your plans are hanging by a thread
Don’t you worry if they seem unclear
Don’t you grow up and let all your secret plans disappear

Secret plans, secret plans
Riding by night in a slow caravan
Secret plans, secret plans
Hiding the light of the stars in the palms of your hands
Secret plans

It won’t be easy, I know you have heard that before
Something ‘bout closing and opening figurative doors
Always stay humble but brave in the face of the fear
That your secret plans will fall through and you’ll end up back here

Secret plans, secret plans
Riding by night in a slow caravan
Secret plans, secret plans
Hiding the light of the stars in the palms of your hands
Secret plans
