The Heart Of The Matter (问题的核心) - Renato Russo

Written by:Don Henley/John David Souther/Mike Campbell

I got the call today I didn't wanna hear

But I knew that it would come

An old true friend of ours was talkin' on the phone

He said you found someone

And I thought of all the bad luck and the

Struggles we went through

And how I lost me and you lost you

What are these voices outside love's open door

Make us throw off our contentment and beg for something more

I'm learning to live without you now

But I miss you sometimes

The more I know the less I understand

All the things I thought I figured out

I have to learn again

I've been tryin' to get down

To the heart of the matter

But everything changes

And my friends seem to scatter

And I think it's about forgiveness

Forgiveness

Even if even if you don't love me anymore

All these times are so uncertain

There's a yearning undefined

People filled with rage

We all need a little tenderness

How can love survive in such a graceless age

All the trust and self assurance

That lead to happiness

They're the very things we kill I guess

All pride and competition

Cannot fill these empty arms

And the work I put between us

You know doesn't keep me warm

I'm learning to live without you now

But I miss you sometimes

The more I know the less I understand

All the things I thought I'd figured out

I have to learn again

I've been trying to get down

To the heart of the matter

But everything changes

And my friends seem to scatter

And I think it's about forgiveness

Forgiveness

Even if even if you don't love me anymore

There are people in your life

Who've come and gone

They let you down you know they hurt your pride

Better put it all behind you life goes on

You keep carryin' that anger

It'll eat you up inside

I've been trying to get down

To the heart of the matter

But my will gets weak

And my thoughts seem to scatter

And I think it's about forgiveness

Forgiveness

Even if even if you don't love me

Trying to get down

To the heart of the matter

Because the flesh will get weak

And the ashes will scatter

So I'm thinkin' about forgiveness

Forgiveness

Even if you don't love me

Forgiveness

Even if you don't love me any more
