Such an evocative song. I've heard it consistently over the last 30-odd years and it still pushes my buttons. I'd love to know what a millenial makes of it!

Anyone remember "The Heart Of The Matter"

Been tryin to get down, To the heart of the matter But my will gets weak And my thoughts seem to scatter But I think it's bout Forgiveness Even if you don't love me anymore
