Last Time
A New January Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You weren't that bad the last time
And I know I'm not your first
Believe me, when I said I need you
Those weren't only words
She said, "Sometimes I feel like
I should be alone and not with anyone
Sometimes I feel like I should be in love"
Something's not quite right
Despite the things I've tried
It's different from the way I felt before
The last time

Undeserving hypocrite
You said there's nothing
You haven't seen yet




I believe your every word like a naive child
For the last time

Overall Meaning

In A New January's song Last Time, the singer reflects on a past relationship and their complicated feelings towards their former partner. The first two lines imply that the singer's ex-partner has some damage and has been with other people in the past. The singer then admits that they still need their ex, despite them not being the first love. The third line shows how much the singer wants the ex-partner to know that they still need them. "Believe me" emphasizes sincerity, which suggests that the singer is genuine and not playing any games.


The next lines in the song are spoken by the ex-partner, and they reveal that sometimes they feel like being alone and not being in love. This is a common dilemma that people face, wondering if they should be in a relationship or not. The final line suggests that the singer has a sense of discomfort and unease in their current feelings towards their ex-partner. They have tried to overcome these feelings, but something still feels off. The use of "The last time" brings an end to the relationship, implying that the singer is ready to move on.
