Last Kiss
T. Swift Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lit through the darkness at 1:58
The words that you whispered
For just us to know
You told me you loved me
So why did you go
Away
Away
I do recall now
The smell of the rain
Fresh on the pavement
I ran off the plane
That July ninth
The beat of your heart
It jumps through your shirt
I can still feel your arms
But now I'll go sit on the floor
Wearing your clothes
All that I know is
I don't know how to be something you missed
Never thought we'd have a last kiss
Never imagined we'd end like this
Your name, forever the name on my lips
I do remember
The swing in your step
The life of the party, you're showing off again
And I roll my eyes and then
You pull me in
I'm not much for dancing
But for you I did
Because I love your handshake
Meetin' my father
I love how you walk with your hands in your pockets
How you kissed me when I was in the middle of saying something
There's not a day I don't miss those rude interruptions
And I'll go sit on the floor
Wearing your clothes
All that I know is that
I don't know how to be something you miss
Never thought we'd have a last kiss
Never imagined we'd end like this
Your name, forever the name on my lips
So I'll watch your life in pictures like I used to watch you sleep
And I feel you forget me like I used to feel you breathe
And I'll keep up with our old friends just to ask them how you are
Hope it's nice where you are
And I hope the sun shines
And it's a beautiful day
And something reminds you
You wish you had stayed
You can plan for a change in weather and time
But I never planned on you changing your mind
So I'll go sit on the floor
Wearing your clothes
All that I know is that
I don't know how to be something you miss
Never thought we'd have a last kiss
Never imagined we'd end like this
Your name, forever the name on my lips
Just like our last kiss
Forever the name on my lips
Forever the name on my lips
Just like our last

Line by Line Meaning
I still remember the look on your face
I vividly recall the expression on your countenance
Lit through the darkness at 1:58
You were radiant despite the dimness of the hour
The words that you whispered
The sentiments you privately expressed
For just us to know
Intended solely for our knowledge
You told me you loved me
You professed your affection for me
So why did you go
Hence, for what reason did you leave?
Away
Going out of sight
I do recall now
At this moment, I can remember
The smell of the rain
The scent of the downpour
Fresh on the pavement
As it hit the concrete
I ran off the plane
I hastily departed from the aircraft
That July ninth
On the ninth day of July
The beat of your heart
The rhythm of your pulse
It jumps through your shirt
It penetrated your clothing
I can still feel your arms
I can still sense your embrace
But now I'll go sit on the floor
At present, I will go and sit on the ground
Wearing your clothes
Clad in your attire
All that I know is
The only thing I am aware of
I don't know how to be something you missed
I am unaware of how to become someone you yearned for
Never thought we'd have a last kiss
I did not anticipate that we would exchange a final kiss
Never imagined we'd end like this
I never envisioned our conclusion would come to this
Your name, forever the name on my lips
Your name shall perpetually be on my mouth
I do remember
I undoubtedly recollect
The swing in your step
The swagger in your movement
The life of the party, you're showing off again
You were the focal point of the gathering, displaying your skills again
And I roll my eyes and then
I momentarily glanced away and then
You pull me in
You drew me closer towards you
I'm not much for dancing
I am not very fond of dancing
But for you I did
But I did it for you regardless
Because I love your handshake
I appreciate your way of shaking hands
Meetin' my father
When you met my father
I love how you walk with your hands in your pockets
I adore the way you stroll with your hands inside your pockets
How you kissed me when I was in the middle of saying something
Remembering how you kissed me in the middle of my speech
There's not a day I don't miss those rude interruptions
I yearn for those impolite interruptions every single day
So I'll watch your life in pictures like I used to watch you sleep
Therefore, I shall observe your existence through images as once I observed you slumber
And I feel you forget me like I used to feel you breathe
I have the sensation that you are forgetting about me just as I used to feel you inhale and exhale
And I'll keep up with our old friends just to ask them how you are
I will maintain contact with our mutual acquaintances solely to inquire about your well-being
Hope it's nice where you are
I hope the location where you are is pleasant
And I hope the sun shines
Moreover, I hope the sun is radiant
And it's a beautiful day
And that it is a magnificent day
And something reminds you
And that something triggers your memory
You wish you had stayed
You yearn to have remained
You can plan for a change in weather and time
One can anticipate the alteration of seasons and time
But I never planned on you changing your mind
However, I was unprepared for you to change your opinion
Just like our last kiss
As with our farewell kiss
Forever the name on my lips
Your name will endure on my mouth forever
Forever the name on my lips
For all eternity, your name shall be on my lips
Just like our last
Similar to our final

Forever the name on my lips
Forever the name on my lips
Just like our last -
