Rickie Lee Jones - Matters lyrics
[Rickie Lee Jones - Matters lyrics]
What you wish for, what you think
The photographs you carry around
What whispers to yourself when
You're finally gone
What you take when you go
Adds up to the big number
What you leave with who you know
Makes the big picture matter
It doesn't matter if you're fat
Wear a helmet or wear a hat
If you're sorry or if you're sure
Who you are is who you were
Who you were matters so deep inside yourself
Looking out at everyone else think a thing
In a while you meet it on the street
Because it matters ahhouse across the sand
The photographs you carry around
What whispers to yourself when
You're finally gone
What you take when you go
Adds up to the big number
What you leave with who you know
Makes the big picture matter
It doesn't matter if you're fat
Wear a helmet or wear a hat
If you're sorry or if you're sure
Who you are is who you were
Who you were matters so deep inside yourself
Looking out at everyone else think a thing
In a while you meet it on the street
Because it matters ahhouse across the sand
