The Heart Of The Matter - Renato Russo



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

He 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 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

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 now, 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 and hurt you
