Matter of Opinion Lyrics by The Communards

Red

1987

Too many times I've thought that I
Could stick around but now I know
There's something I've just got to do
I've got to move on and find some expression
Some return on all I'm giving
I know I can do it, with or without you
(Understand)
Won't you try to understand my point of view?
(Understand)
Come on and try a little, try a little, try a little, please do
(Understand)
Won't you try to understand my point of view?
(Understand)
Come on and try a little, try a little, try a little, please do, ooh-ooh
Come on, do
I could explain but why should I
Waste my time on you?
Life's too short, every day brings something new
I know that I could be good for
Someone else who believes in me
Someone who will move me, body and soul
There are changes I must make
To make my life seem all worthwhile
I can't pretend I still need you
There's no motivation, inspiration
Nothing seems to come from you
So here is what I've got to say, hey hey
(Understand)
Won't you try to understand my point of view?
(Understand)
Come on and try a little, try a little, try a little, please do
(Understand)
Won't you try to understand my point of view?
(Understand)
Come on and try a little, try a little, try a little, please do, ooh-ooh
Come on, do
(Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa)
There are changes I must make
To make my life seem all worthwhile
I can't pretend I still need you
There's no motivation, inspiration
Nothing seems to come from you
So here is all I've got to say, hey hey
(Understand)
Won't you try to understand my point of view?
(Understand)
Come on and try a little, try a little, try a little, please do
(Understand)
Won't you try to understand my point of view?
(Understand)
Come on and try a little, try a little, try a little, please do
Come on, do
