What Matters
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Here you are, you're in over your head
Spread so thin, facing the dead of the night
And with every glance there's
Shattered dreams, broken pieces
It all seems so meaningless
We've run out of time
Searching for the answers
It this all chance, this sacred dance
What matters most, what matters is love's never lost
Love is never lost
Come close to me, open your heart
Come here and listen and open your eyes
Come and embrace, open your arms
What matters most is love never dies
Come to the sea, the sea of forgiveness
Go to the well that never runs dry
Walk in the land, the land of the living
What matters most is love never dies
Pity the man who falls and then realizes
He has no one to help him up
Is that how it's been my friend?
The sun will rise, and the sun will set
But what matters most, what matters is that love's never lost
Love is never lost
Come close to me, open your heart
Come here and listen, and open your eyes
Come and embrace, open your arms
What matters most is that love never dies
Go to the sea, the sea of forgiveness
Go to the well that never runs dry
Walk in the land, the land of the living
What matters most is that love never dies
Come close to me, open your heart
Come here and listen, and open your eyes
Come and embrace, and open your arms
What matters most is that love never dies
Go to the sea, the sea of forgiveness
Go to the well that never runs dry
Walk in the land, the land of the living
What matters most is that love never dies
