The Last Time
Above & Beyond Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You answered
You loved me
No one on earth could ever make me
Make me feel
So loved, so complete
You have your own way
That I can dream of
The one solution to every problem
That makes me crazy
It turns me inside out
The last time we touched, the last time you held me
I was a soul in your hand
The last time we touched, the last time you held me
My life had only begun
The last time we missed, and I could see you clearly
My eyes were not opened up
The last time we missed, the last time I held you
I could see you clearly
Your sky is mine, I walk beneath it
Not alone
When I call your name
You always answer
And every time I begin to doubt you
You give me more love
No hesitation
You come to me when my heart is beating
So hard I cannot breathe
You give me all I need
And this is all I need
The last time we touched, the last time you held me
My eyes were not opened up
The last time we missed, the last time I held you
I could see you clearly
You touched me
I feel you in my arms
The last time we touched, the last time you held me
I was a soul in your hand
The last time we touched, my heart could see you clearly
The lyrics to Above & Beyond's song "The Last Time" depict the intense feeling of being loved by someone that makes life complete. The singer of the song expresses how no one on earth can make them feel as loved and complete as their lover does. The lyrics also emphasize the importance of the special connection the two share and how their lover is the only answer to every problem and solution to every reason that makes the singer feel crazy. The song expresses the strong love and bond between two people and how the love they share makes them feel complete and alive.
The lyrics describe how the singer's life had only begun when they were last together because they felt complete and whole in their lover's arms. The last time they missed each other, their eyes were not opened up, but when they held each other, they could see each other clearly. The singer feels that their lover is always with them, walking under the same sky, and always answering when they call. The song ends with the singer expressing how they feel their lover in their arms and how they were a soul in their lover's hands the last time they were held.
Something interesting about the song "The Last Time" is that it features the vocals of singer-songwriter, Tania Zygar. The song was released in 2011 as part of Above & Beyond's third studio album, "Group Therapy." The song has been remixed by several artists, including Wrechiski and Seven Lions. "The Last Time" was featured on Above & Beyond's "Group Therapy Radio" episode 010, which is the most listened to episode of the podcast ever. The song was also performed at the Bandra Fort in Mumbai, India, for the "Sunburn Goa 2013" festival. The song's lyrics were featured on the cover of a Norwegian book titled "Jeg savnet deg koala" (I missed you koala). The book was about mental health and how people can cope with depression and anxiety. Above & Beyond has stated that the song's lyrics were inspired by the works of American psychologist, Abraham Maslow.

I've been counting down the days and the nights
Since you last said that you loved me
And its cold here in the shadows with no light
Since you last said that you loved me
I've been counting down the days and the nights
Since you last said that you loved me
And its cold here in the shadows with no light
Since you last said that you loved me
Time is like an enemy leaving lovers by the side
The more you cling to love, the more you're gonna lose your mind
All I feel is sadness now
Taking over, taking over, taking over
All I see is black clouds of doubt
Taking over, taking over, taking over
I've been counting down the days and the nights
Since you last said that you loved me
And its cold here in the shadows with no light
Since you last said that you loved me
Time is like an enemy leaving lovers by the side
The more you cling to love, the more you're gonna lose your mind
All I feel is sadness now
Taking over, taking over, taking over
I've been counting down the days and the nights
Since you last said that you loved me
And its cold here in the shadows with no light
Since you last said that you loved me

I've been counting down the days and the nights
Since you last said that you loved me
And it's cold here in the shadows with no light
Since you last said that you loved me
Time is like an enemy leaving lovers by the side,
The more you cling to love, the more you're gonna lose your mind.
All I feel is silence now
Taking over, taking over, taking over.
All I see is black clouds of doubt
Taking over, taking over, taking over.
I've been counting down the days and the nights
Since you last said that you loved me
And it's cold here in the shadows with no light
Since you last said that you loved me
Time is like an enemy leaving lovers by the side,
The more you cling to love, the more you're gonna lose your mind.
All I feel is silence now
Taking over, taking over, taking over.
I've been counting down the days and the nights
Since you last said that you loved me
And it's cold here in the shadows with no light
Since you last said that you loved me

It's life's trials and tribulations reflected at 120 bpm.
@TheWormzerjr
Trance has made me a better man.
@Flippy_Nips
I cried the first time i listened to this song. For those of us who can relate to lost love, it's a sad yet beautiful song.
@DerposaurusRex
It definitely hits home :(
@chrislynch8128
I find it ironic that this song came out as I was going through pretty much the exact same series of events shown in the video. To this day this song hits me as both painful and beautiful at the same time, if thats possible . . .
@tuukkap601
I remember doing the same. It has been four years now. All of a sudden Youtube decided to play this one for me. I was living overseas, working on my internship, feeling miserable and broken yet living the time of my life. Definitely hit me hard. After discovering this song I walked home many times in the evening playing this on my ears. I think this song gave me strength in a place I used to be.
I just love A&B – haven't heard a single track by them that isn't to be appreciated for what it is.
