The Last Time (VEVO Version) Lyrics
[Verse 1: Gary Lightbody]
Find myself at your door
Just like all those times before
I’m not sure how I got there
All roads they lead me here
I imagine you are home
In your room, all alone
And you open your eyes into mine
And everything feels better
[Hook: Both]
And right before your eyes
I’m breaking
No fuss, no reasons why
Just you and me
(e-he-e-he-e-he-e-he-e-he-e-he-e-he-e-he)
[Chorus: Both]
This is the last time I’m asking you this
Put my name at the top of your list
This is the last time I’m asking you why
You break my heart in the blink of an eye
(eye, eye)
[Verse 2: Taylor Swift]
You find yourself at my door
Just like all those times before
You wear your best apology
But I was there to watch you leave
And all the times I let you in
Just for you to go again
Disappear when you come back
Everything is better
Find myself at your door
Just like all those times before
I’m not sure how I got there
All roads they lead me here
I imagine you are home
In your room, all alone
And you open your eyes into mine
And everything feels better
[Hook: Both]
And right before your eyes
I’m breaking
No fuss, no reasons why
Just you and me
(e-he-e-he-e-he-e-he-e-he-e-he-e-he-e-he)
[Chorus: Both]
This is the last time I’m asking you this
Put my name at the top of your list
This is the last time I’m asking you why
You break my heart in the blink of an eye
(eye, eye)
[Verse 2: Taylor Swift]
You find yourself at my door
Just like all those times before
You wear your best apology
But I was there to watch you leave
And all the times I let you in
Just for you to go again
Disappear when you come back
Everything is better
[Hook: Both]
And right before your eyes
I’m aching
No fuss, nowhere to hide
Just you and me
(e-he-e-he-e-he-e-he-e-he-e-he-e-he-e-he)
[Chorus: Both]
This is the last time I’m asking you this
Put my name at the top of your list
This is the last time I’m asking you why
You break my heart in the blink of an eye
(eye, eye)
[Bridge: Taylor Swift and Gary Lightbody]
This is the last time you tell me I’ve got it wrong
This is the last time I say it’s been you all along
This is the last time I let you in my door
This is the last time, I won’t hurt you anymore
Oh-ho, oh-ho, oh-ho, oh-ho
Oh-ho, oh-ho, oh-ho, oh-ho
[Chorus: Both]
This is the last time I’m asking you this
Put my name at the top of your list
This is the last time I’m asking you why
You break my heart in the blink of an eye
And right before your eyes
I’m aching
No fuss, nowhere to hide
Just you and me
(e-he-e-he-e-he-e-he-e-he-e-he-e-he-e-he)
[Chorus: Both]
This is the last time I’m asking you this
Put my name at the top of your list
This is the last time I’m asking you why
You break my heart in the blink of an eye
(eye, eye)
[Bridge: Taylor Swift and Gary Lightbody]
This is the last time you tell me I’ve got it wrong
This is the last time I say it’s been you all along
This is the last time I let you in my door
This is the last time, I won’t hurt you anymore
Oh-ho, oh-ho, oh-ho, oh-ho
Oh-ho, oh-ho, oh-ho, oh-ho
[Chorus: Both]
This is the last time I’m asking you this
Put my name at the top of your list
This is the last time I’m asking you why
You break my heart in the blink of an eye
[Outro: Both]
This is the last time I’m asking you, last time I'm asking you
Last time I'm asking you this
This is the last time I’m asking you, last time I'm asking you
Last time I'm asking you this
This is the last time I’m asking you, last time I'm asking you
Last time I'm asking you this
This is the last time I’m asking you, last time I'm asking you
Last time I'm asking you this
About
Genius Annotation
This is the VEVO version of this song, for the RED album version click here.
On November 15th, 2013, almost a year after the release of the 2012 RED album version of “The Last Time”, Taylor rereleased an edited version on VEVO. The VEVO version is almost 1 minute 10 seconds shorter than the album version. The album version of the song was approaching 5 minutes in duration so with the VEVO release Taylor altered the lyrics and instrumentals on the track to shorten it up a bit. The VEVO version saw much success with 31 million views as of 2017. Taylor removed much of the outro as well as the guitar solo in the middle of the song when releasing it on VEVO.
