Guess It Doesn't Matter
Eva Cassidy · Imagine
Well, you left me here so I could sit and cry.
Well, golly gee, what have you done to me?
I guess it doesn't matter any more
Do you remember baby, last September
How you held me tight, each and every night
Well, oh baby, how you drove me crazy
I guess it doesn't matter any more
There's no use in me a-cryin'.
I've done everything and I'm sick of tryin'.
I've thrown away my nights,
Wasted all my days over you
Now you go your way and I'll go mine
Now and forever till the end of time
I'll find somebody new and baby, we'll say we're through
And you won't matter anymore
