That’s All That Matters To Me Now

Published on December 8, 2024 By Sabin

The final song on the album, a truth-inspired, meandering guitar-driven indie walkabout, like drunken-boxer guitar playing. Lazy but with intent. The song is about what the future could look like, after all the healing, what’s really important.

Lyrics

I never ever wondered where I was to go.
I never ever wondered who I was to know.
I never ever thought about what I was to do.
I never ever wondered about anyone but you.
Now look at us,
scattered all around.
Now look at us
with these pieces on the ground.
We’re doing the best we can.
There’s flowers in our hair.
It’s just you and me babe,
and that’s all that matters to me now.

Now I don’t wonder who I am to know.
Now I don’t wonder where I am to go.
It’s just you and me now trying to find some friends.
Here we are camped out near the world’s end,
and it’s all of us together,
or none of us at all.
All of us together
trying to camp along the wall.
All of us together,
or it’s none of us at all.
You and me babe trying to figure it out
as best we can.

Didn’t wonder now what I often wondered then.
Didn’t wonder now what I won’t wonder when
I wander out into the world with you there
just by my side where we can go and stare…
watching the scudding clouds,
and watching the blue waves.
Looking around to see the people
and what we have saved.
Making music as often as we can.
Maybe then we can hang out in the sand,
out in the sand,
out in the sand.

(I love you)
