What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
I got the call today, I didn't want to hear
2
But I knew that it would come
3
An old, true friend of ours was talkin' on the phone
4
She said you found someone
5
And I thought of all the bad luck
6
And the struggles we went through
7
And how I lost me and you lost you
8
What are those voices outside love's open door
9
Make us throw off our contentment
10
And beg for something more?
11
I'm learning to live without you now
12
But I miss you sometimes
13
The more I know, the less I understand,
14
All the things I thought I knew, I'm learning again
15
I've been tryin' to get down
16
To the heart of the matter
17
But my will gets weak
18
And my thoughts seem to scatter
19
But I think it's about forgiveness
20
Forgiveness
21
Even if, even if you don't love me anymore
22
These times are so uncertain
23
There's a yearning undefined
24
People filled with rage
25
We all need a little tenderness
26
How can love survive in such a graceless age?
27
Ah, the trust and self-assurance that lead to happiness
28
They're the very things we kill, I guess
29
Oh, pride and competition
30
Cannot fill these empty arms
31
And the work I put between us, you know it doesn't keep me warm
32
I'm learning to live with out you now
33
But I miss you, baby
34
And the more I know, the less I understand
35
All the things I thought I'd figured out
36
I have to learn again
37
I've been trying to get down
38
To the heart of the matter
39
But everything changes
40
And my friends seem to scatter
41
But I think it's about forgiveness
42
Forgiveness
43
Even if, even if you don't love me anymore
44
There are people in your life
45
Who've come and gone
46
They let you down
47
You know they've hurt your pride
48
You better put it all behind you baby
49
'Cause life goes on
50
You keep carryin' that anger
51
It'll eat you up inside baby
52
I've been trying to get down
53
To the heart of the matter
54
But my will gets weak
55
And my thoughts seem to scatter
56
But I think it's about forgiveness
57
Forgiveness
58
Even if, even if you don't love me
59
I've been tryin' to get down
60
To the heart of the matter
61
Because the flesh will get weak
62
And the ashes will scatter
63
So, I'm thinkin' about forgiveness
64
Forgiveness
65
Even if , even if you don't love me
66
Forgiveness, forgiveness, baby
67
Forgiveness, forgiveness
68
Forgiveness, forgiveness
69
Even if, even if you don't love me
70
Forgiveness, forgiveness
71
Forgiveness, forgiveness
72
Forgiveness, forgiveness
