What I Wanted Lyrics - Say It Right, Pt. 2 - Nelly Furtado

I turned my head away 

Didn't wanna hear what you said 

You had changed your mind 

I showed up insecure 

But I thought you would be sure 

I guess I had a lost sight 

[Chorus:] 

But at the end of my life 

I'll look back on my life 

I'll know that my life was good 

At the end of my life 

I'll look back on my life 

See I went after you like I should 

I went after what I wanted 

I went after what I wanted 

And I never really got it 

But it don't matter at all 

I guess it was a lot 

To ask for these things we'd lost 

I guess it was just a dream 

And time changes many things 

But my heart it still sings 

For you, I don't know why 

[Chorus:] 

But at the end of my life 

I'll look back on my life 

And I'll know that my life was good 

At the end of my life 

I'll look back on my life 

See I went after you like I should 

I went after what I wanted 

I went after what I wanted 

And I never really got it 

But it don't matter at all 

[Bridge:] 

I thought I'd spend my last days 

Holding your hand 

Now how am I, since he's lying dead on the floor 

[Chorus:] 

But at the end of my life 

I'll look back on my life 

And I'll know that my life was good 

At the end of my life 

I'll look back on my life 

See I went after you like I should 

I went after what I wanted 

I went after what I wanted 

And I never really got it 

But it don't matter at all 

Everything else I lost it 

I went after what I wanted 

I went after what I wanted 

And the rest don't really matter 

It don't matter at all
