Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When you're feelin' like a lover, nothing really matters anymore
I saw you standin' there in the supermarket
With your red dress fallin' and your eyes are to the ground
Nothing really matters
Nothing really matters when the one you love is gone
[Verse 2]
You're still in me baby, I need you
In my heart, I need you
'Cause nothing really matters
I'm standin' in the doorway
[Verse 3]
You're walkin' round my place in your red dress, hair hangin' down
With your eyes on one, we love the ones we can
'Cause nothing really matters when you're standin'
Standin'
[Verse 4]
I need you, need you
'Cause nothing really matters
We follow the line of the palms of our hands
You're standin' in the supermarket, nothing, holdin' hands
In your red dress fallin', fallin' in, fallin' in
A long black car is waitin' 'round
I will miss you when you're gone
I'll miss you when you're gone away forever
'Cause nothing really matters
I thought I knew better, so much better
[Verse 5]
And I need you
I need you
'Cause nothing really matters
[Verse 6]
On the night we wrecked like a train, purring cars and pouring rain
Never felt right about it, never again 'cause nothing really matters
Nothing really matters anymore
Not even today, no matter how hard I try
When you're standin' in the aisle and baby, nothing
Nothing, nothing
[Verse 7]
I need, I need, I need you
I need you, I need you
Just breathe, just breathe
I need you
