It Mattered To Me

It mattered to me

When you took love that mattered

It mattered to me

When you left it in tatters

It mattered to me

Did it matter to you?

Everyone has something that matters

But they didn't know

Until that something shatters

It mattered to me

It mattered to me 

The windows were open

Our minds were locked up

I said something tasteless

And filled up my cup

I shared it with you

As if that were enough

To make something matter

Like love mattered to me

Well it mattered to me

Like something important

Like some kind of treasure that we left behind

It wasn't like we, had some kind of falling out

Maybe we just stopped knowing how to be kind

And it mattered to me

When a friend got so cut up

By somebody who

Needed to shut up

It's called empathy

We need more of that now

It mattered to me

Yes, it mattered to me

Baby, baby, baby
