Plan
Yearning for Love's Clarity
Lyrics
Got me sitting here waiting for your text
Expressing impatience, waiting for a text message.
But you would rather text your ex
Noticing that the person prefers texting their ex over them.
Oh we can’t just be friends
Acknowledging that a platonic friendship isn't sufficient.
I’m tired of this pretending
Fed up with pretending, seeking authenticity.
In my head you are my man
Imagining a deeper, romantic connection in one's own perspective.
But in your head we are just friends
Realizing that the other person sees the relationship as just friends.
I don’t want it to end but it has to
Accepting that the situation needs to end, despite reluctance.
I would rather just be on your mind taking up your time
Preferring to be a significant presence in the person's thoughts.
Finally saying you are my man
Desiring an official commitment from the person.
Treating you just right with your suit and tie
Envisioning a well-tailored and proper treatment in a relationship.
If you were my man you would hold me close
Imagining the care and closeness in a romantic relationship.
You would treat me right
Expecting to be treated with respect and consideration.
like I’m the only woman on earth
Desiring to be the center of attention in the person's eyes.
You would give me time to tell you what my day was like
Wanting time and attention for sharing daily experiences.
But right now I don’t got no man and that’s just not the plan
Expressing dissatisfaction with the current lack of a relationship.
I love getting played all of time
Feeling accustomed to being deceived or mistreated in relationships.
And it’s not from you on your grind
Clarifying that the disappointment is not caused by the person in question.
I’m just tired of wasting my life
Expressing frustration with wasting time on unfulfilling relationships.
I keep thinking I won’t find anyone
Expressing doubt about finding a suitable partner.
I keep thinking my stories already done
Feeling like one's life story is concluded without a fulfilling relationship.
But ours hasn’t even begun
Contrasting the current situation with the potential for a new beginning.
If you were my man you would hold me close
Repeating the desire for closeness and proper treatment in a relationship.
You would treat me right
Reiterating the expectation of being treated with respect and care.
like I’m the only woman on earth
Repeating the desire to be the center of attention in the person's eyes.
You would give me time to tell you what my day was like
Reiterating the need for time and attention to share daily experiences.
But right now I don’t got no man and that’s just not the plan
Restating dissatisfaction with the current lack of a relationship.
And I will wait for the right time and I will wait yes I will wait
Expressing a willingness to wait for the right person and time.
Yes I will wait for the right guy and I will wait yes I will wait
Reaffirming the commitment to patiently wait for the right partner.
