Last Call
Traci Braxton Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's the last call
It's the last call
It's the last call
It's the last call

It's the last call for loving
I'm so over the pain so
It's my last call
It's the last call for loving
I'm so over the pain so
It's my last call

Hey cupid, why you looking stupid?
You got an arrow don't you, won't you use it?
Pick through the bag of love, make my perfect picture
And make me love sick
I need a perfect picture

Why is it so different when it comes to me
How many more times can I believe
Before I let go of the fantasy
'Cause it seems so real to me
When your body's close to me
And when you make love to me
I'm tired of the hurt
Got the house like song
Cause it's my last call

It's the last call for loving
I'm so over the pain so
It's my last call
It's the last call for loving
I'm so over the pain so
It's my last call

So baby how we gon' do this
Why you gotta to be so elusive
Just when I thought I've found the perfect picture
We be dealing with all types of issues
So why is it so different when it comes to me
How many more times can I believe
Before I let go of the fantasy
'Cause it's so damn real to me

When you're so close to me
And when you make love to me
I'm tired of the hurt
Got the house like song
'Cause it's my call

It's the last call for loving
I'm so over the pain so
It's my last call
It's the last call for loving
I'm so over the pain so
It's my last call

I've been so caught up here all this time
While inside I've been slowly dying
I don't feel like you've been trying
Can't you see we're so divided

So why is it so different when it comes to me
How many more times can I believe
Before I let go of the fantasy
Sometimes I think that I just need to breathe

Breathe
I'm tired of the hurt
Got the house like song
'Cause it's my call

It's the last call for loving
I'm so over the pain so
It's my last call
It's the last call for loving




I'm so over the pain so
It's my last call

I still can’t Believe Tracy is Gone!!! Serves also as a reminder that tomorrow or the next second isn’t promised to us. We never know when our name will be called.
