  • I got the call today' I didn't wanna hear

    But I knew that it would come
    An old true friend of ours was talkin' on the phone
    She said you found someone

    And I thought of all the bad luck'
    And all the struggles we went through
    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 for something more?

    I've been learning to live without you now

    But I miss you sometimes

    The more I know' the less I understand

    All the things I thought I knew' I'm learning them 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

    Even if' even if you don't love me anymore

    These times are so uncertain
    There's a yearning undefined

    And people filled with rage

    We all need a little tenderness

    How can love survive in such a graceless age

    And 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 they put between us'
    You know it doesn't keep us warm

    I've been trying to live without you now

    But I miss you' baby

    The more I know' the less I understand
    And all the things I thought I figured out' I have to learn again
    I've been tryin' to get down to the Heart of the Matter
    But my will gets weak

    And my heart is so shattered
    But I think it's about forgiveness
    Forgiveness

    Even if' even if you don't love me anymore

    All the people in your life who've come and gone
    They let you down' you know they hurt your pride

    Better put it all behind you; cause life goes on
    You keep carrin' that anger' it'll eat you up inside

    I wanna be happily everafter
    And my heart is so shattered
    But I know it's about forgiveness
    Forgiveness
    Even if' even if you don't love me

    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

    Even if you don't love me anymore

    Even if you don't love me anymore
