(I've Decided On) A Whole New Plan Letra

cause better days have got to be in store
happiness is what you make of it
make a mistake of it
I confess my first and worst affair
an unrehearsed affair
played with fire until the flame thrust up and bit me
my desire to look again just made him quit me
now I learned so I won't do the way I used to
won't get burned no more I'm through demanding I refuse to
I've decided on a whole new plan
some better ways now that I know the score
I've decided on a whole new plan
cause better days have got to be in store
I've decided on a whole new plan

Made a dunce out of myself resume
got on the shelf resume
all at once my dreams and schemes went lame
and now it seems a shame
now it's clear but it's too late to save my romance
he's not here he wouldn't wait so I've got no chance
yes one day I'll find another willing sweetheart
I won't play like with the other half of my complete heart
I've decided on a whole new plan
some better ways now that I know the score
I've decided on a whole new plan
cause better days have got to be in store
