about
'All That Matters' is definitely mellower. It's meant to be a single and that's what we made it into. It was inspired by Pat's step-brother's return from war ("Who knows why you left and where you've been. But I can say for certain that I don't want to know what you did out there. I swear don't tell me how, because I know you're back and it's all that matters now."). The verses were written so that the song is more about a person's lover leaving his life overnight for unknown reasons and eventually coming back.
lyrics
We've had our differences you know
But this was quite unexpected
You left my world with perfect timing
And all that's left of you is nothing
I told myself that you’d be back before
I sold my soul in order to get you home
Who knows
Why you left and where you’ve been
But I can say for certain
That I don’t want to know
I don’t want to know (I don’t want to know)
What you did out there
I swear don’t tell me how (how)
‘Cause I know you’re back
And it’s all that matters now
I started to lose faith after
Not hearing about you for a year
But I got a letter from you that said
I love you forever and I won’t be staying here
But I told myself that you’d be back before
I sold my soul to get you back at home
Who knows
Why you left and where you’ve been
But I can say for certain
That I don’t want to know
I don’t want to know (I don’t want to know)
What you did out there
I swear don’t tell me how (how)
‘Cause I know you’re back
And it’s all that matters now
