[Verse 1]
Pen and paper
Write our names out everywhere
See you later
If you say so, I don't care

[Refrain]
An apparition on the other side of the table
Did I imagine you there?

[Verse 2]
It's a little like a riddle
I'm guessing the end
Got a fistful
Of straws and nickles to make it make sense (Mm)

[Refrain]
An apparition on the other side of the water
Did you imagine me there?

[Chorus]
Does it ever matter?
Does it matter what I do? Mm
I can never seem to get to you
You, ah
You, never get to you
[Verse 3]
Digging deeper
I don't see beyond your eyes, mm
You're a mirror
Showing me what's on my mind
How am I supposed to know
Which set of skin and bones feels right to hold for life?

[Chorus]
Does it ever matter?
Does it matter what I do? Mm
I can never seem to get to you
You, ah-ah
You, never get to you
Does it ever matter? (You, ah-ah)
Does it matter what I do?
I never get to you
You, what do I do? I never get to you

[Outro]
Mm, mm
Get to you
