On Our Last Date
Conway Twitty Lyrics

It's over, our love affair,
The relationship between the singer and his lover has ended.

Too late now I find I care
The singer is realizing his feelings for his lover only after their relationship has ended.

Her sweet love, never more I'll share
The singer is mourning the loss of his lover's love which he will never have again.

She's gone, I'm alone,
The artist's lover has left him and he is left feeling lonely.

I was wrong, should have known
The artist is admitting his fault in the failed relationship and realizes that he should have seen it coming.

Took her home after our last date
The singer and his lover went home together after their last date, possibly indicating that this was the moment their relationship ended.

I searched for a simple way
The singer was looking for an easy way to break up with his lover.

To tell her what I had to say
The artist needed to tell his lover something important.

I kissed her then I turned away
After delivering the news, the artist kissed his lover and then walked away from her.

Set her free, foolishly, destiny, misery
The artist set his lover free from their relationship, not realizing that it was a mistake and would only lead to pain and sadness in the future.

Tragedy, on our last date
The end of their relationship was a tragic event, happening on their last date together.

Took my ring from her trembling finger
The artist removed the ring he had given to his lover from her finger.

Brushed the tears from my baby's eyes
The singer wiped away his lover's tears as he was ending their relationship.

Walked away, didn't know
The singer left his lover without realizing the impact it would have on both of them.

That I'd soon miss her so
The singer did not know that he would soon realize how much he would miss his lover.

I guess I was too young to realize
The artist suggests that he was not mature enough to understand the depth of his feelings and what losing his lover would mean to him.

So blind I couldn't see
The artist was clueless or blind to the fact that his lover meant so much to him.

How much she really meant to me
The singer didn't realize how much his lover truly meant to him until after they broke up.

And that soon she would always be
The singer knows that he will always think of his lover and what they once had, even after the relationship has ended.

On my mind, in my heart,
The artist can't stop thinking about his lover and how he feels about her, even though she is no longer a part of his life.

I was blind from the start
The artist realizes that he was blind to his true feelings for his lover from the beginning of their relationship.

Lost her love on our last date
The end of their relationship led to the artist losing the love of his life on their last date together.
