I got the call today, I didn't wanna hear
But I k new that it would come
A n old true friend of ours was talkin' on the phone
She said you f ound someone
And I thought of all the bad luck,
And the struggles we went through
And how I lost me and you lost you
What are these voices outside love's open door
Make us throw off our contentment
And beg f or something m ore?
I 'm learning to live without you now
But I miss you sometimes
The more I know, the less I understand
All the t hings I thought I knew, I'm learn ing again
I 've been tryin' to get down to the Heart of the Matter
But my will gets weak
And my thoughts seem to scatter
But I think it's about forgiveness
Forgiveness
Ev en if, even if you d on't lo ve me anymore
These times are so uncertain
There's a yearning undefined
And people filled with rage
We all need a little tenderness
H ow can love survive in s uch a graceless age
The trust and self-assurance that lead to happiness
They're the very things we kill, I guess
Pride and competition cannot fill these empty arms
And the work I put between us,
You know it doesn 't keep me wa rm
I 'm learning to live without you now
But I miss you sometimes
The more I know, the less I understand
All the t hings I thought I figured out, I have to learn again
I 've been tryin' to get down to the Heart of the Matter
But everything changes
A nd my friends seem to scatter
But I think it's about forgiveness
Forgiveness
Ev en if, even if you d on't lo ve me anymore
There are p eople in your life who've come and gone
They le t you down you know they hurt your pride
Y ou better put it all behind you, baby; 'cause life goes on
You keep carry in' that anger, it'll e at you up inside
I 've been tryin' to get down to the Heart of the Matter
But my will gets weak
And my thoughts seem to scatter
But I think it's about forgiveness
Forgiveness
Ev en if, even if you d on't lo ve me anymore
I 've been tryin' to get down to the Heart of the Matter
Because the flesh will get weak
And the ashes will scatter
So I'm thinkin' about forgiveness
Forgiveness
Ev en if, even if you d on't lo ve me anymore
