Matter

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
