It Don’t Matter Anymore
Mickey Newbury
My, it's been a long, long time
Funny things I once treasured in my mind
Be like the closing of the door
It just don't matter anymore
All the friends I thought I knew
They dwindled down now to a precious few
I feel like an aging LA boy
It just don't matter anymore
Taking it in
I'm watching a willow freely
Bend in the wind
Turning so ever slowly
I mean in the end
Honey don't no one know me
Not the way that you do
My it's been a long, long time
Funny thing how you could
Always read my mind
So turn out the light
And close the door
'Cause it just don't matter anymore
It just don't matter anymore
