i've also had this one stuck in my head as of late...
.
.
.
"I got the call today,
I didnt 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 all these voices outside loves 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,
Im learning again
.
Ive 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
Theres a yearning undefined
And people filled with rage
We all need a little tenderness
HOW CAN LOVE SURVIVE in such a graceless age? .
The trust and self-assurance that lead to happiness
Theyre 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 doesnt keep me warm
.
Im 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
.
Ive been trying to get down
To the heart of the matter
BUT EVERYTHING CHANGES
And my friends seem to scatter
But I think its about forgiveness
Forgiveness
Even if, even if you dont 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
LIFE GOES ON
.
IF YOU KEEP CARRYIN' THAT ANGER,
IT'LL EAT YOU UP INSIDE, BABY
.
Ive 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...
