Making Plans
Osborne Brothers · Osborne Brothers 1 (1956-1968) [Bear Family] [1993]
You say tomorrow you're going
It's so hard for me to believe
I'm making plans for the heartaches
'Cause you're making plans to leave.
The tears for me will be falling
Like a tree shedding its leaves
I'm making plans for the teardrops
'Cause you're making plans to leave.
You're making plans to forget me
I'm making plans to miss you
I'm gettin' ready to grieve
I'm making plans to be lonesome
'Cause you're making plans to leave.
I'm making plans to be lonesome
'Cause you're making plans to leave...
