Steve Earle - This Is How It Ends Lyrics
Turn around and look at how far we've come
Two hearts beatin' like a single drum
Said you'd never lie and I promised I'd never run
Forever wasn't just another word back then
We swore we'd stay together ever after, thick and thin
Guess I should have seen it comin' from the start
Comes to love then fallin' is the easy part
Everybody told me you were only gonna break my heart
Been around this lonely world and back again
From the time I found myself a lover and a friend
Now this is how it ends
This is how it ends
If you'd only told me back then
Just another fool to trust you again
A fairytale they tell about a love so strong
Flowin' like a river rollin' on and on
Come around the bend and I looked around but you were gone
Never saw it comin' but you can't pretend
The line between a secret and a lie ain't razor thin
Now this is where it ends
This is how it ends
Hand me down dress on a wasted day
Ring in the pocket of a vest of gray
That's the way a cheatin' song begins
This is how it ends

Steve Earle This Is How It Ends Comments
Lessons learned ...
Wow, this is actually duet by Miranda Lambert and Steve Earle!!
plagiarism!
Such a copy of the melody of "Islands in the Stream"! I wonder why some people get away such blatant
Wacky edit at 1:21 or so. Love the song otherwise.
Hey Lambert why not work this song up with The Troubadour and sing it when he's on THE BANDWAGON TOUR . Give those Gossips something to run with!!! You and Steve Earl did wonderful on this song!
This might be his best album since "I Feel Alright"! Lovin' it!
Big fan of both. Steve's voice somehow doesn't mesh with Miranda's. Maybe 45 year old Steve's voice would be a better fix but really, it's just nit picking. I can get used to it. Great song and they are a great collabo. I don't want an award for them as they don't need to prove anything to those who think today's country is actually country. Steve is still around 30 years later and Miranda will be as well.
Just beautiful!
Very pretty song. Great harmony.
Does anybody have the lyrics for this song?

Wow. Love it !!!! We need more "old time country "
Great song!
What great harmony!
It Sound Good with Miranda Lambert in it
Would go nuts if they made a cassette version of this album!
Cassette? Seems like an odd choice. It is out on vinyl.
this duet sounds really good 😊 great job
Lambert might carry this song.
Love this song.
love it absoulety love this song awesome! Another award for duet .. I can see it coming...
love this song!!!
Teresa fans has to hollower at radio and tell them you want them to play this
Would be nicer if it wasn't such a melodic twin of "Islands in the stream".
Lambert and Earle are country music's beauty and the beast. Earle is a hopeless, helpless romantic and Lambert's bitter sweetness harmonizes well with his earthy worldness. Here's to hoping this is only the beginning and not at all How It Ends.
Paul Grubbs This shit should be played on country radio!
BAHAHABAHAHA yeah ok pal.!!!!!
