Make a Plan to Love Me Lyrics

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 had your 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?

Pretty obvious, I think. About being loved.

Fantastic album.

"Make A Plan to Love Me is a kind of romantic song. For any of you romantics out there. It's about a person that has a lot going for them, they're very busy. They have all these plans, and dreams, and schemes. They're really propelling themselves through all the hurtles of the world, but they're maybe neglecting nothing right beside them, which is perhaps more important than all these other things that they're keeping themselves busy with"

This is from an interview with Conor.

too add to love nothing's comment, an additional quote from conor on his podcast about the album:

"it's just a romantic song about a person saying to their lover who is, who has all these plans and schemes, who is maybe a workaholic or driven/has all this ambition to do amazing things but is neglecting their lover. so she's saying 'even though you have all these things going on, I need you to make another plan...to love me.' It's a romance song/romance novel."

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

It's definetely "Some things you lose"

yes, as heresheroshero stated ..

it's about someone who doesn't see what is right in front of them, and appreciate it. they are too worried about everything else they want and "need", and they never see the wonderful things that are right under their nose .. i really enjoy this song a lot..

so straightforward and old fashioned. this is such a good album

Cover art for Make a Plan to Love Me lyrics by Bright Eyes

this song isn't about being loved at all. it's "obviously" about someone not wasting time on things that don't matter because, as Conor states:

life is too short. death doesn't ask, it don't owe you that.

yeah, i think this is conor asking someone that's kind of materialistic, kind of unappreciative, like, could you fit me into your plans? and like, could you make time for me?
