It Doesn't Really Matter

It doesn't really matter that I loved you
How many reasons call
It doesn't really matter at all.

It doesn't matter that I failed to
Break down your father's wall
But it really doesn't matter at all.

Why tell me you don't understand when you do
I thought I had something to say
But it really doesn't matter at all.

I changed my name
To be rid of the things that I want from you
It's strange
But a name is a name and the truth is the truth.

Oh, there is always
Always someone there to remind me.

So I learn to live with shame
Tell myself I feel no pain
But I do
And if I have to tell you.

Then it really doesn't matter at all
Love in your hands
Promises, promises.

And it's no good looking back
Because time's a thief and I believe that
I'm too old for that
We're just saying the things that we have said
forever.

It doesn't really matter that I loved you
How many seasons fall
It's too bad
It really doesn't matter at all.
