Heart Of The Matter by Don Henley


I got the call today that 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'd found 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 for something more?

 

I'm 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 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

 

Ah 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?

Ah the trust and self-assurance that lead to happiness

They're the very things we kill i guess

Ohh pride and competition cannot fill these empty arms

And the work i put between us

You know it doesn't keep me warm

 

I'm learning to live without you now

But i miss you baby

And the more i know the less i understand

All the things i thought i'd figured out i have to learn again

 

I've been trying to get down to the heart of the matter

But everything changes and my friends seem to scatter

But i think it's about forgiveness forgiveness

Even if even if you don't love me anymore

 

There are people in your life who've come and gone

They let you down you know they hurt your pride

You better put it all behind you baby 'cause' life goes on

If you keep carryin' that anger it'll eat you up inside baby

 

I've been trying 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

 

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 even if you don't love me

 

Forgiveness

(yeah)

Forgiveness

(baby)

Forgiveness

(ohh)

Forgiveness

(ahh yeah)

Forgiveness

(ohh)

Forgiveness

Even if you don't love me anymore

Forgiveness

Forgiveness

Forgiveness

...
