The Very Last Time Lyrics

This is the last time, the very last time
You’re going to break my heart
Unlike the last time, this is the last time
You’re going to break my heart

Staring down the barrel of a lonesome truth
We never got that far
From the worn out welcome of a wasted youth
I see the way we are

This is the last time, the very last time
You’re going to break my heart
Unlike the last time, this is the last time
You’re going to break my heart

I had a dream where you came to see me
You asked if I was okay
That’s how I knew that I was dreaming
You asked if I was okay

This is the last time, the very last time
You’re going to break my heart
Unlike the last time, this is the last time
You’re going to break my heart

You’re going to break my heart

So many things that I had hoped for
So many things I fear
It’s like tears into a river
The way they’ve all disappeared

This is the last time, the very last time
You’re going to break my heart
Unlike the last time, this is the last time
You’re going to break my heart

Cover art for The Very Last Time lyrics by Todd Snider

Sometimes, it seems like Todd has companion songs. This seems like the spiritual successor to "Carla"--just a devastating song of a guy getting dicked around and heartbroken. This although slightly less clever than "Carla" seems a touch sadder.
