In The End Lyrics by Lalah Hathaway

Outrun the Sky

2004

[Verse 1]
I thought that we were in love together
Now I know it was only me
I thought it was always forever
Now I know that was naive
I thought that you would be the one for me
But you took my love
And then you set me free
[Chorus]
In the end, I lost this time
In the end, you can't always win
In the end, gave you the best of me
Said I loved you more
In the end, I lost this time
In the end, you can't always win
In the end, gave you the best of me
[Verse 2]
I used to think that
Nobody could love you like me
That idea was oh so wrong
Some girl will love you
And mistakenly believe
That you feel the same
But she'll be dead wrong
She might be the kind of girl
That would give her heart to you
She might even be a friend of mine
By the time she figures out
That you played her for a fool
You'll be loving someone new
[Chorus]
In the end, I lost this time
In the end, you can't always win
In the end, gave you the best of me
Said I loved you more
In the end, I lost this time
In the end, you can't always win
In the end, gave you the best of me
[Chorus]
In the end, in the end, in the end
Gave you the best of me
Said I loved you more
In the end, I lost this time
In the end, you can't always win
In the end, gave you the best of me
[Bridge]
In the end
In the end
Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa
In the end
Gave you the best of me
In the end
In the end
Oh yeah, yeah yeah yeah
In the end
In the end
In the end
Yeah yeah yeah
In the end
Yeah yeah yeah
In the end
In the end
In the end
When it's over, babe
Oh yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
