Wait Its you And at the end of it all its you And at the end Its you At the end of it all its you Its you Its you At the end of it all its you Its you Its you At the end of it all Lookin' for how I see her When I finally realized couldn't believe it I couldn't, even swallow Had a lump in my throat my stomach hollow I had a notion that things were fishy But everything was fine so I'd be pissy But when you wasn't seeing me nights you get in That's when the snoopin' and shit it would begin Where you at? Where you going? That's what I get when I pick up the phone Not a hello or I miss you Or the renaissance how does it do? Suspicious ones go few Can stress out your brain In weighs on your mane And helps you peep game I thought it was me But then I could it see It was you Its you At the end of it all it was you And at the end It was you At the end of it all it was you And at the end Its you Its you At the end of it all its you Its you Its you At the end of it all I couldn't take it But the spell of love I couldn't shake it Even though I would discover That there was somebody else It was your lover You gave me up And managed to turn the tables And all your honest words they turn to fables The things that you would accuse me of It seem were the things you were doin' love Get it? these things you projected And I don't want to be affected But when you get in love Its never easy love To make decisions of You've defected You were doin' so much to try to pin me Goin' through all my stuff but it was empty Answers, that I'm seekin' Well it seem I'm gettin' close That I'm reachin' And I was thinkin' I had no reason Callin' you a culprit it was treason And the twinkle in your eye It was kinda not for love And tell me why? We'll make a mends if you admit it We can ascend if your committed Your heart, is it in it? If it goes for many days Sweet love can decay from you Its you At the end of it all it was you And at the end It was you At the end of it all it was you And the end Its you Its you At the end of it all its you Its you Its you At the end of it all
