To The End Song Lyrics
[Verse 1: Damon Albarn & Lætitia Sadier]
All those dirty words (Jusqu' la fin)
They make us look so dumb (En plein soleil)
Been drinking far too much (Jusqu' la fin)
And neither of us mean what we say (En plein amour)
[Chorus: Damon Albarn]
Well, you and I collapsed in love
And it looks like we might have made it
Yes, it looks like we've made it to the end
[Verse 2: Damon Albarn & Lætitia Sadier]
What happened to us? (Jusqu' la fin)
Soon it will be gone forever (En plein soleil)
Infatuated only with ourselves (Jusqu' la fin)
And neither of us can think straight any more (En plein amour)
[Chorus: Damon Albarn]
Well, you and I collapsed in love
And it looks like we might have made it
Yes, it looks like we've made it to the end
When you and I collapsed in love
Well, it looks like we might have made it
Yes, it looks like we've made it to the end
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge: Lætitia Sadier]
En plein amour
[Chorus: Damon Albarn]
You and I, we just collapsed in love
And it looks like we might have made it
Yes, it looks like we've made it to the end
[Outro: Lætitia Sadier]
