It Doesn't Really Matter Lyrics
George Michael
Lyrics
It doesn't really matter that I loved you
How many reasons call
It doesn't really matter at all
It doesn't matter that I failed to
Break down your father's wall
It doesn't matter at all
Why tell me you don't understand when you do
I thought I had something to say
But it really doesn't matter at all...
I changed my name
To be rid of the things that I want from you
It's strange
But a name is a name and the truth is the truth
Oh, there is always
Always someone to remind me
So I learn to live with shame
Tell myself I feel no pain
But I do
And if I have to tell you
Then it really doesn't matter at all...
And it's no good looking back
Because time's a thief and I believe that
I'm too old for that
We're just saying the things that we've said
Forever
It doesn't really matter that I loved you
How many seasons fall
It's too bad
It really doesn't matter at all
