Answer 2

What Mattered Most (back to top)
Gary Burr * Vince Melamed

I Thought I Knew The Girl So Well
If She Was Sad, I Couldn't Tell
I Missed The Point, I Missed The Signs
So If She's Gone, The Fault Is Mine
I Know, I Know
A Whole Lotta Little Things
Even Though
I Could List Them One By One
She Will Still Be Gone

Chorus
Her Eyes Were Blue
Her Hair Was Long
In '64 She Was Born In Baton Rouge
Her Favorite Song Was In My Life
I memorized Her Every Move
I Knew Her Books, Her Car, Her Clothes
But I Paid No Attention To What Mattered Most

I Never Asked, She Never Said
And When She Cried, I Turned My Head
She Dreamed Her Dreams Behind Closed Doors
And That Made Them Easy To Ignore
I Know I Know
I Missed The Forest For The Trees
All I Have To Show When She Walked Out That Door
Are Cold Facts And Nothing More

Second Chorus

Her Eyes Were Blue
Her Hair Was Long
In '64 She Was Born In Baton Rouge
Her Father's Tall, Her Mother's Gone
She Moved Out West When She Was Two
The Way She Laughed, The Way She Loved
Oh My God, What Did I Do?

Answer 3

What Mattered Most
by Ty Herndon


I thought I knew, the girl so well
if she was sad I couldn't tell
I missed the point, I missed the signs
so if she's gone the fault is mine,
I know I know, a whole lot of little things
and even though
I could list them one by one,
she would still be gone

chorus:
her eyes are blue
her hair was long
64, she was born in Baton Rouge
her favorite song is " In My Life"
I memorized her every move
I knew her books, her car, her clothes
but I paid no attention to what mattered most

I never ask, she never said
and when she cried, I turned my head
she dreamed her dreams, behind closed doors
that made them easy to ignore
and I know I know
I missed the forest full of trees
and all I have to show
oh but she walked out the door
cold facts and nothing more

her eyes are blue
her hair was long
64, she was born in Baton Rouge
her favorite song is " In My Life"
I memorized her every move
I knew her books, her car, her clothes
but I paid no attention to what mattered most
her eyes are blue
her hair was long
64, she was born in Baton Rouge
her fathers tall
her mothers gone
she moved out west when she was 2
the way she laughed
the way she loved
oh my God what did I do?
