It Don't Matter

Loverboy · Original Album Classics [2013]

If you can read between the lines

Then you can tell me what my next move will be

It's just a matter of time before the whole wide world will see



And when you tell me that I'm wrong

In the morning, I'll be gone

And if you've heard it all before

Then it just don't matter no more



Why don't you tell me what you're after?

Why don't you say what's on your mind?

How will you feel the morning after,

When all there is is what I've left behind?



And when you tell me that I'm wrong

In the morning, I'll be gone

And if you've heard it all before

Then it just don't matter no more



It don't matter no more

It don't matter, matter to me

It don't matter no more

Ooo-ooh-hoo



And when you tell me that I'm wrong

In the morning, I'll be gone

And if you've heard it all before

Well, it just don't matter no more



Why don't you tell me what you're after?

Why don't you say what's on your mind?

How will you feel the morning after,

When all there is is what I've left behind?



'Cause when you tell me that I'm wrong

In the morning, I'll be gone

And if you've heard it all before

Well, it just don't matter no more



It don't matter no more

It don't matter

It don't matter

It don't matter no more

Ooo-ooh-hoo

It don't matter no more

It don't matter, matter to me

It don't matter no more

It don't matter

It don't matter

It don't matter no more

Look around, baby

It don't matter no more

Ooo-ooh-hoo, hey



Read between the lines

Read what's on my mind



Don't matter, don't matter, don't matter to me

It don't matter, it don't matter to me, to me

Ooo-ooo-ooo, ooo-ooo



Read between the lines

A-doo-ba-da-wa-doo-way

Doo-bah, doo-bah, day

Hey, hey, hey

Don't matter to me, don't matter to me

Don't matter to me what they say

What they say

Ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo
