Heart Of The Matter - Loretta Lynn

I got a call today that I didn’t wanna hear

But I knew that it will call

And old true friend of hours was talking on the phone

She said you found someone

And I thought of all the bad luck and struggles we went through

How I lost me and you lost you

What are all these voices outside love’s opened door

Because through off our contentment and beg for something more

I’m learning to live without you now

But I miss you sometimes

More and more the less I understand

All the things I thought I knew

I’m learning again

I’ve been trapped to get down

To 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

All these times are so uncertain

Is an earning undefined

People filled with rage

We all need a little tenderness

How can love survive in such a graceless age?

The trust in self-assurance that lead to happiness

That the very things will you kill our

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

The more I know, the less I understand

All things I thought I 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

And I think it’s about forgiveness, forgiveness

Even if, even if you don’t love me anymore

There are people in your life who come and go

That let you down and they hurt your pride

Better put it on a high… cause loves goes on

Keep carrying that anger, it will leave you up inside

I’m learning to live without you now

But I miss you sometimes

The more and all the less I understand

Even if, even if you don’t love me anymore
