Intro verse 1 For starts What a waste to say the heart could feel apart Or feel complete, baby Why would you make out of words a cage for your own bird? When it sings so sweet The screaming, heaving, fuckery of the world? Why would you offer her name to the same old tired pain? When all things come from nothin' and, honey, if nothin's gained? Pre-Chorus My heart is thrilled by the still of your hand N.C It's how I know now that you understand There's no plan, there's no race to be run The harder the rain, honey, the sweeter the sun There's no plan, there's no kingdom to come I'll be your man if you got love to get done Sit here and watch the sunlight fade Honey, enjoy, it's gettin' late There's no plan, there's no hand on the rein As Mac explained, there will be darkness again verse 2 Let it hurt, let the awful song be heard Blue bird, I know you beat, baby But your secret is safe with me 'cause if secrets were like saints Keep my body from the fire, higher, guard them from my grave Your secret is safe with me, and if secrets were like seeds When I'm laying on the marble, marble of flowers you have made Pre-Chorus My heart is thrilled by the still of your hand It's how I know now that you understand There's no plan, there's no race to be run The harder the rain, honey, the sweeter the sun There's no plan, there's no kingdom to come I'll be your man if you got love to get done Sit here and watch the sunlight fade Honey, enjoy, it's gettin' late There's no plan, there's no hand on the rein As Mac explained, there will be darkness again Instrumental x2 Pre-Chorus My heart is thrilled by the still of your hand It's how I know now that you understand How big the hourglass, how deep the sand I shouldn't have hoped to know, but here I stand There's no plan, there's no race to be run The harder the rain, honey, the sweeter the sun There's no plan, there's no kingdom to come I'll be your man if you got love to get done Sit here and watch the sunlight fade Honey, enjoy, it's gettin' late There's no plan, there's no hand on the rein As Mac explained, there will be darkness again
