Eagles - Heart of the Matter by Eagles lyrics

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 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 these voices outside loves open door Make us throw off our contentment And beg for something more? Im 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 its about forgiveness Forgiveness Even if, even if you dont 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-a**urance that lead to happiness Theyre the very things - we k** 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 Id 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 whove come and gone They let you down you know they hurt your pride You better put it all behind you baby; life goes on You keep carryin that anger; itll eat you up inside, baby Ive been trying to get down To the heart of the matter But my will gets weak And my thought seem to scatter But I think its about forgiveness Forgiveness Even if, even if you dont love me Ive been tryin to get down To the heart of the matter Because the flesh will get weak And the ashes will scatter So Im thinkin about forgiveness Forgiveness Even if, even if you dont love me Forgiveness Forgiveness - baby Forgiveness Forgiveness Forgiveness Forgiveness Even if, you dont love me anymore --- .
