It Doesn't Matter

(album: Free As A Bird - 1987)

Hey, how's your conscience lately
You tried so hard to please me
And now you seem so uneasy
You say that you've had enough and you're out of love

It hit me like a hurricane
It hit me like a speeding train
I try to climb a mountain range
And fall down on the ground again
I thought that it would be OK
But you had other cards to play
Just like a shot from a gun
I got hurt, I got stunned
That's how it hit me

I just want to know why
Do you do this to me?
And where, is your sense of reason?
So how, could you fool me so long?
And now, watch my tenderness turn to emptiness

It hit me like a hurricane

It doesn't matter what I do
It doesn't matter much to you
It doesn't matter what I do
It's over now, we're through
You got me feeling excited
You gad me set and ignited
But now I'm feeling so down low
Like some down-trodden hobo

It doesn't matter

You gad me chasing illusions
You got me lost in confusion
And I'm so tired of losing
I've got to stop, now, and not get involved with you
Again

It doesn't matter
