It Don't Matter Now

(Michael McDonald)



It's finally come

Is that sorry on your breath?

Where were you when I was sitting back here

Missing you to death?

It don't matter now.



How, I wanna know

Can you tell me plain and true?

How high will you fly

Without me there to be your sky?

Well, it don't matter now.



Don't mean to leave you standing on your own

I think back on days and nights we had long ago

Maybe love is just a game you play

This much I do know

It don't matter now.



It's finally come

Is that sorry on your breath?

Where were you when I was sitting back here

Missing you to death?

It don't matter now.



Now I don't tell stories and I don't pretend

I won't be around to say I told you then

'Cause it seems like something's finally broken

That'll take a while to mend

But it don't matter now.

Is that sorry on your breath?

Where were you when I was sitting back here

Missing you to death?

It don't matter now.

It don't matter now.

It don't matter now...
