Berikut ini lirik lagu “End of The Road” – Boyz II Men:
Girl, you know we belong together
I have no time for you to be playin’ with my heart like this
You’ll be mine forever, baby, you just see
We belong together
And you know that I’m right
Why do you play with my heart
Why do you play with my mind?
Said we’d be forever
Said it’d never die
How could you love me and leave me
And never say goodbye?
Pre chorus
When I can’t sleep at night without holding you tight
Girl, each time I try, I just break down and cry
Pain in my head, oh, I’d rather be dead
Spinnin’ around and around
Chorus
Although we’ve come to the end of the road
Still, I can’t let go
It’s unnatural, you belong to me, I belong to you
Come to the end of the road
Still, I can’t let go
It’s unnatural, you belong to me, I belong to you
Girl, I know you really love me
You just don’t realize
You’ve never been there before
It’s only your first time
Maybe I’ll forgive you, mmm
Maybe you’ll try
We should be happy together
Forever, you and I
Pre chorus
Will you love me again like you loved me before?
This time, I want you to love me much more
This time instead, just come to my bed
And baby, just don’t let me, don’t let me down, oh
Chorus
Although we’ve come to the end of the road (End of the road)
Still, I can’t let go (The end of the road and I know I can’t let go, baby)
It’s unnatural, you belong to me, I belong to you (I don’t know what I’m gonna do)
Come to the end of the road (I don’t know what I’m gonna do ’cause I know I’ve come to the end of the road, the end of the road)
Still, I can’t let go (Oh my God, oh my God, help me out a little bit, baby)
It’s unnatural, you belong to me, I belong to you
Interlude
Girl, I’m here for you
All those times at night when you just hurt me
And just ran out with that other fella
Baby, I knew about it, I just didn’t care
You just don’t understand how much I love you, do you?
I’m here for you
I’m not out to go out and cheat all night (Maybe I’ll forgive you, baby)
Just like you did, baby, but that’s alright
Heh, I love you anyway (Maybe you’ll try)
And I’m still gonna be here for you ’til my dying day, baby
Right now, I’m just in so much pain, baby (We should be happy together forever)
‘Cause you just won’t come back to me (You and I)
Will you? Just come back to me (Yeah, yeah)
Interlude II
(Lonely) Yes, baby, my heart is lonely
(Lonely) My heart hurts, baby
(Lonely) Yes, I feel pain too
(Lonely) Baby, please
Pre chorus
This time instead, just come to my bed
And baby, just don’t let me down
Chorus
Although we’ve come to the end of the road (We’ve come to the end of the road)
Still, I can’t let go (I know I just can’t let go, no)
It’s unnatural, you belong to me, I belong to you (No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no)
(I don’t know what I’m gonna do)
Come to the end of the road (I don’t know what I’m gonna do ’cause I know I’ve come to the end of the road, the end of the road)
Still, I can’t let go (Oh my God, oh my God, help me out a little bit, baby)
It’s unnatural (Baby), you belong to me (Baby), I belong to you (Baby)
Although we’ve come to the end of the road
Still, I can’t let go (Alright, alright, alright)
It’s unnatural, you belong to me, I belong to you (It’s unnatural, you belong to me, I belong to you, woah)
Come to the end of the road (Although we’ve come to the end of the road)
Still, I can’t let go (I know I just can’t let go, no)
It’s unnatural, you belong to me, I belong to you (No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no)
