Wiki:

Nelly Kim Furtado ComIH (/fɜːrˈtɑːdoʊ/; Portuguese: [fuɾˈtaðu]; born December 2, 1978) is a Canadian singer and songwriter. She first gained fame with her trip hop-inspired debut album, Whoa, Nelly! (2000), which was a critical and commercial success that spawned two top-10 singles on the Billboard Hot 100, "I'm Like a Bird" and "Turn Off the Light". The first of the two singles won her a Grammy Award for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance. Furtado's introspective folk-heavy 2003 second album, Folklore, explored her Portuguese roots. Its singles received moderate success in Europe, but the album's underperformance compared to her debut was regarded as a sophomore slump. Furtado's third album, Loose (2006), was a smash hit and became her best selling album with more than 12 million copies sold worldwide, also making it one of the best selling albums of the 2000s. Considered a radical image reinvention, Furtado continued to explore her Portuguese heritage while leaning heavier into hip hop. The album spawned four successful number-one singles worldwide; "Promiscuous", "Maneater", "Say It Right", and "All Good Things (Come to an End)". Her Timbaland collaboration "Give It to Me" (2007) in the same era also topped the charts in the US and overseas. Furtado's critically acclaimed duet with James Morrison, "Broken Strings", also topped the charts in Europe in 2008. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nelly_Furtado

[Verse 1] Honestly, what will become of me? Don't like reality, it's way too clear to me But really, life is dandy We are what we don't see We miss everything daydreaming [Chorus] Flames to dust, lovers to friends Why do all good things come to an end? Flames to dust, lovers to friends Why do all good things come to an end? Come to an end, come to an... Why do all good things come to an end? Come to an end, come to an... Why do all good things come to an end? [Verse 2] Traveling, I only stop at exits Wondering if I'll stay (Stay) Young and restless Living this way, I stress less I want to pull away when the dream dies The pain sets in, and I don't cry I only feel gravity, and I wonder why [Chorus] Flames to dust, lovers to friends Why do all good things come to an end? Flames to dust, lovers to friends Why do all good things come to an end? Come to an end, come to an... Why do all good things come to an end? Come to an end, come to an... Why do all good things come to an end? [Post-Chorus] Well, the dogs were whistling a new tune Barking at the new moon Hoping it would come soon, so that they could— Dogs were whistling a new tune Barking at the new moon Hoping it would come soon, so that they could— [Bridge] Die Die Die Die [Chorus] Flames to dust, lovers to friends (Dust, friends) Why do all good things come to an end? Flames to dust, lovers to friends Why do all good things come to an end? (An end) Come to an end, come to an... (End, end) Why do all good things come to an end? (End, end) Come to an end, come to an... (End, end) Why do all good things come to an end? (End) [Outro] Well, the dogs were barking at the new moon Whistling a new tune Hoping it would come soon And the sun was wondering if it should Stay away for a day 'Til the feeling went away And the sky was falling And the clouds were dropping And the rain forgot how to bring salvation The dogs were barking at the new moon Whistling a new tune Hoping it would come soon, so that they could die
