Matter Lyrics

When the call came through and you looked away

And told me what you couldn't before

And I listened to that quiet sound against your ear

And there were feelings that we tried to ignore

And you took my hand outside the station

And said I could do whatever I wanted to do

Well bones will heal, but everything else stays

In a different kind of black and blue

So I'll burn all my old years again

And I promise I'll be friends with your friends

And I'll keep the best bits

With my front door key

Cause if they matter to you they matter to me

And at last I fell into your broken arms

And followed you down the tunnel of sleep

And we landed on a shoreline

With the waves washing over our feet

And it was that seaside town I remember

My parents took me to as a boy

Yeah I can see it all then, like solid ground

Giving way to some forgotten joy

So I'll burn all my bad years again

And I promise I'll be friends with your friends

And I'll keep the best bits

With my front door key

Cause if they matter to you they matter to me

And if it matters

We're both made of the same matter

An ever changing state of things

With one beginning

And god you matter

We're just made of fragile matter

An ever changing shape of things

Another ending

And if it matters

We're all made of the same matter

An ever changing state of things

With one beginning

And god you matter

We're just made of fragile matter

An ever changing shape of things

Another ending

So I'll burn all my bad years again

And I promise I'll be friends with your friends

And I'll keep the best bits

With my front door key

And if it's matter to you then it's matter to me
