All at Once (It's Not Important)

I swear I thought you knew
We were feeling something strange
How could I forgive and just forget? It don't mean much
'Cause then it's like when we first met, it don't mean much
And all at once it's not important

And though the words we spoke were few
A warning roaring miles above
What fell in place just falls apart again, I guess
And all that time we spent I swear we wasted, it don't mean much
She ruled the room and I just stared

My heart's still in a crescent veil
Not having, I can only hope

Then you said, "Darling, how could you?"
Remember back when we first met, it don't mean much

But how could you forgive and just forget? It don't mean much
A watchful haze in the rushing night

All those things I said, I never meant, it don't mean much
Hanging over a worn-out night
All those things you said, you never meant, it don't mean much
It's only time and you know I'll wait
A silver studded torn and tattered gown
