I got the call today
I didn't want to 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 the struggles
we went through
And how I lost me
and you lost you
What are
those 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
These times are
so uncertain
There's a yearning
undefined
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
They're the very
things we kill I guess
Pride and
competition
cannot fill these
empty arms
And the work I put
between us doesn't
keep me warm
I'm learning to live
without you now
But I miss you baby
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
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've
hurt your pride
You better put it
behind you
Cause life goes on
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 anymore
