The Last Time I Cried

V5.5

[Verse 1] I didn’t plan a ceremony Didn’t light a candle up Didn’t call my mother crying Didn’t pour another cup I just sat there in the quiet With your number on the screen Let it blur until the letters Didn’t look like anything [Pre-Chorus] There was no big revelation No clean closing of a door Just one tired little heartbeat That couldn’t do it anymore [Chorus] This is the last time I cried For the same old wound The last time I let your leaving Take over the room I may cry for tomorrow For the life I’m walking through But this is the last time I cried Over you [Verse 2] I used to give the night permission To pull me back again Used to make a home of missing Used to call the hurt a friend But tonight I heard the silence And it didn’t say your name It just sounded like an ending I was strong enough to claim [Pre-Chorus] I don’t need to hate your memory I don’t need to call it clean I just need one honest moment Where my heart believes me [Chorus] This is the last time I cried For the same old wound The last time I let your leaving Take over the room I may cry for tomorrow For the life I’m walking through But this is the last time I cried Over you [Bridge] I’m not saying I won’t ache I’m not saying I won’t bend I’m not saying healing comes Like a curtain at the end But I can’t keep giving sorrow The best place in my chest Some love takes all it came for Then asks for what is left [Final Chorus] This is the last time I cried For the girl I used to be The one who called it loving When it cost her everything I may cry for tomorrow For the truth I’m walking through But this is the last time I cried Over you [Outro] I wiped my face I let you go Not all at once But enough to know This is the last time Over you
