JOHNNY CASH

- The Last Time Lyrics

How many times now has it been I swore I'd never do again
What I've done right now
It seems I walk right out that door Just to walk back in for more
Until you pull me out

From these lies in my mind When they all seem to say
The last time I tried Was the last time I failed

Last time I didn't try hard enough to make it right
I let that evil side come back around
This time you're gonna see one more chance is all I need
To show You that I'm trying to let you down
For the last last time

You said you'd never put me through Something I can't say no to
If I really try
But still this cycle that I'm in Is like a carousel of sin
That takes me for a ride

On these lies in my mind When they all carry on
Saying the last time I tried Was the last time they won

Last time I didn't try hard enough to make it right
I let that evil side come back around
This time you're gonna see one more chance is all I need
To show You that I'm trying to let you down
For the last last time

And the seeds that I've sown grow wild On my futile attempts to change
But like an addict going dry I think I'm ready... this time

Last time I didn't try hard enough to make it right
I let that evil side come back around
This time you're gonna see one more chance is all I need
To show You that I'm trying to let you down
For the last last time

Last time I didn't try hard enough to make it right
I let that evil side come back around
This time you're gonna see one more chance is all I need
To show You that I'm trying to let you down
For the last last time

The song tells a story of loss and the difficulty of getting over it, pointing out the shortness of love and the impossibility of trusting in 'forever' again. The last time lyrics are mainly about love gone wrong, deep thinking, and feeling despondent, helpless and nostalgically trying to hold on.
