Part of the Plan Lyrics

I have these moments
All steady and strong
I’m feeling so holy and humble
The next thing I know
I’m all worried and weak
And I feel myself starting to crumble.

The meanings get lost
And the teachings get tossed
And you don’t know what you’re
Going to do next.
You wait for the sun
But it never quite comes
Some kind of message comes through to you
Some kind of message comes through.

And it says to you…

Chorus:
Love when you can
Cry when you have to…
Be who you must
That’s a part of the plan
Await your arrival
With simple survival
And one day we’ll all understand…

I had a woman
Who gave me her soul
But I wasn’t ready to take it.
Her heart was so fragile
And heavy to hold
And I was afraid I might break it.

Your conscience awakes
And you see your mistakes
And you wish someone
Would buy your confessions.
THe days miss their mark
And the night gets so dark
And some kind of message comes through to you
Some kind of message shoots through—

And it says to you…

(Chorus)

There is no Eden or
Heavenly gates
That you’re gonna make it to one day
But all the answers you seek
Can be found
In the dreams that you dream
On the way.

What plan? What the heck is he talking about? Thought maybe this guy a holy roller, but no real indication. Some kind of visionary? On drugs?

What is the "plan" that Dan Fogelberg is talking about? He seems to refer to it repeatedly over multiple songs. I don\'t understand what he is getting at. Anyone?
