The Last Time
Soulful Reflections: Unveiling the Depths of 'The Last Time' Meaning
Lyrics
can't seem to find the words
Expressing difficulty in finding appropriate words.
To say the things I want to say to you
Struggling to articulate feelings or thoughts to the listener.
I must be burnin' out
Suggesting exhaustion or emotional fatigue.
One night a long, long time ago
Narrating a past event from a long time ago.
My mother told me I should go to you
Recalling advice from the mother to approach someone.
With all my thoughts and dreams
Encouraged to share inner thoughts and aspirations.
Please, please tell me
Pleading for information or insight.
What you gonna do
Asking about the course of action in a given situation.
When every princess comes to you singing?
Envisioning scenarios where individuals approach with admiration.
Lord have mercy
Expressing a plea for divine intervention or compassion.
Mercy on my soul
Seeking mercy for the speaker's soul.
Please have mercy
Reiterating the request for mercy.
Salvation for my soul
Desiring salvation for the speaker's soul.
It's just that I can't justify
Expressing a struggle to understand certain actions or choices.
How you can let them do the things they do
Questioning the listener's tolerance of objectionable behavior.
Well, I'd let them have it good
Expressing a willingness to confront or challenge negativity.
They laugh and totally forget
Highlighting the forgetfulness of others about the divine origin.
That all creation is because of you
Acknowledging the creation as a result of a higher power.
How do you do such things?
Pondering the ways of the divine and seeking understanding.
Please, please tell me
Repeating the plea for information or guidance.
What you gonna do
Asking about responses when faced with negativity or challenges.
When all the losers cling to you singin'?
Envisioning situations where less successful individuals seek attention.
Lord have mercy
Reiterating a plea for divine mercy.
Mercy on my soul
Seeking mercy for the speaker's soul once again.
Please have mercy
Reiterating the request for mercy and salvation.
Salvation and some mercy, mercy, mercy
Emphasizing the need for mercy multiple times.
Mercy on my soul
Further plea for mercy for the soul.
Lord have mercy
Repeating the plea for divine mercy.
Mercy on my soul
Requesting mercy for the speaker's soul again.
Please have mercy
