Description
Just an emotional piece. I had a cold so the singing is not so good but this is more of a lyric tune. Life is hard sometimes.

Lyrics
I prayed to the lord the other day
Hoping he would understand
He said It's not the cards you're dealt
But how you play the hand.

Wasn't the answer I was looking for
I was looking for some prize
He said that I am smart enough
But I'm not yet that wise.

I've got plans
I've got plans

For the future for the past
For everything that lasts
I've got plans
I've got plans

Now the time it keeps on passin'
And things keep looking bad
Sometimes it makes me angry
Sometimes it makes me sad

While looking back at life
All I've held in my hand
The unknown of the future
My foot sinks in the sand

But I've got plans
I've got plans
For the future for the past
For everything that lasts
I've got plans
I've got plans

I really don't have much to show
For all the time I've spent
Sometimes love is borrowed
And sometimes love is lent
But love is something you just can't own
It's something you just rent
And for all the love I got from you
I will not repent

But I had plans
I had plans
For the future for the past
For everything that lasts
I had plans

Sorry you have to go so soon
There's sadness mixed with fear
Sometimes I bang my fist with rage
Sometimes I shed a tear

Let me hold you one more time
Before you fade away
If my faith is strong enough
We'll meet again someday

'Cause I got plans
I still got plans
For the future has become the past
And nothing really seems to last

Except my plans
And what good are my plans?
With out you in my hands?
And what good are my plans?
With out you in my hands?
What good are my plans?

Glad you found this
Glad you found this song and commented. I think it would be a real good piece if someone with a good voice and some real instrumentation could do it. Right now all I have are loops and a cold. Can't take any credit for the guitar picking since it is just a loop.

Great lyrics
Well written lyrics. I was playing along; Feter's right, it's a cozy feeling and the vocal was honest. Good job.

Thanks
Thanks for the comment Joe. Honest vocals usually means you did your best but don't quit your day job. In my defense I had a really bad cold. I retried the vocals when the cold cleared up and I liked the original one better since it gives it more of a sad or distressed tone. Thanks for your listen and I really do like your stuff quite a bit.

Not exactly what I meant
Honest vocal refers to the way it comes over to the listener; I bought into the performance; you know, the vocal lends itself to the emotion, did not distract me away from the story. Maybe its more poetry than singing, doesn't matter, I liked it.

You nailed this though. Hey loops are definately not that easy to sew together as good as you have here, You sound brilliant and I love the song and the lyrics, You Rock!!! Awwwee so sad this song it makes me feel tearful. But its sounds Beautiful though. Thank you.

Peace Dee. xx
