Lyrics
It doesn?t matter
The look in your eye is burning holes in my heart
You still don?t see why I want us to part
The scars of the past tell me I must move on
And now is the time that I must be strong
Chorus
It doesn?t matter
It really doesn?t matter
You know it doesn?t matter
Its the way it must be
You see your remorse has lost meaning for me
I?ve seen it before and it is not guaranteed
You ask me now to forgive and forget
I know it?s a task I would live to regret
Chorus
The door to the room, now beckons me on
I know I cannot keep this front up for long
To see you so weak makes this harder to do
I must recall just what you?ve put me through
chorus
I am walking away without turning around
The man I once loved has been lost and not found
I saw him today somewhere deep in your eyes
I must leave quickly before I start to cry
chorus
