Last Time
Labrinth Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A world to be discovered
And now it's my turn to fly
Let this be the last time I say goodbye
I love Tokyo, I've never been
See I'm looking for somewhere that my journey could begin
And now maybe Cairo, guten tag Berlin
We're on a trip around the world
Let's make it wonderful
One moment to another
A world to be discovered
And now it's my turn to fly
Let this be the last time I say goodbye
Hey Ibiza, give me the groove
I'ma party 'til I black out, and wake up in Cancun
If I sleep in Seattle, plan the next move
I'll be having a ball over in Ayia Napa too
Now we're on a trip around the world
Let's make it wonderful
One moment to another
A world to be discovered
And now it's my turn to fly
Let this be the last time I say goodbye
Atlas on the dancefloor
Round the world like a merry-go
Atlas on the dancefloor
Round the world like a merry-go (so let me see)
Atlas on the dancefloor (your body)
Round the world like a merry-go (like a merry-go)
Atlas on the dancefloor (oh-ooh-oh)
Round the world like a merry-go-merry-go-merry-go
New York City, London Town
There's a moment somewhere out there
You'll never know, what's waiting outside your window
I'm taking off, oh-oh-off, oh-oh-off
Lifting me up uh-uh-up, uh-uh-up, uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-up
I'm taking off, oh-oh-off, oh-oh-off
Lifting me up, uh-uh-up, uh-uh-up, uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-up
One moment to another
A world to be discovered
And now it's my turn to fly
Let this be the last time I say goodbye
Atlas on the dancefloor
Round the world like a merry-go, merry-go (you can't bring us down)
Atlas on the dancefloor
Round the world like a merry-go, merry-go
Atlas on the dancefloor
Round the world like a merry-go, merry-go
Atlas on the dancefloor
Round the world like a merry-go, merry-go
The song "Last Time" by Labrinth is an upbeat and inspiring track that talks about embarking on a journey around the world, looking for new experiences and adventures.

The song is mainly about traveling to different places such as Tokyo, Cairo, Berlin, Paris, Ibiza, Cancun, Seattle, and Ayia Napa.

Feel the same. Strong & iconic from start to finish. Going strong at nearly a decade, and still best remix by KP next to Unison.
