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'd 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 Are the very things - we kill I guess... Pride and competition Cannot fill these empty arms And the work I've put between us You know it doesn't keep us warm
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
There are people in your life who've come and gone They let you down, you know they hurt your pride You gotta put it all behind you cause' life goes on You keep carryin' anger, it'll eat you up inside… Live happily ever after
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 gets 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…

The Heart Of The Matter
[India Arie의 곡]
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'd 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
Are the very things - we kill I guess...
Pride and competition
Cannot fill these empty arms
And the work I've put between us
You know it doesn't keep us warm
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
There are people in your life who've come and gone
They let you down, you know they hurt your pride
You gotta put it all behind you cause' life goes on
You keep carryin' anger, it'll eat you up inside…
Live happily ever after
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 gets 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…
