[Verse 1: Gary Lightbody]
I find myself at your door
Just like all those times before
I’m not sure how I got there
All roads, they lead me here
I imagine you are home
In your room, all alone
And you open your eyes into mine
And everything feels better
[Pre-Chorus: Gary Lightbody & Taylor Swift]
And right before your eyes
I'm breakin'
No past, no reasons why
Just you and me
[Chorus: Gary Lightbody & Taylor Swift]
This is the last time I'm askin' you this
Put my name at the top of your list
This is the last time I'm askin' you why
You break my heart in the blink of an eye, eye, eye
[Verse 2: Taylor Swift]
You find yourself at my door
And just like all those times before
You wear your best apology
But I was there to watch you leave
And all the times I let you in
Just for you to go again
Disappear when you come back
Everything is better
[Pre-Chorus: Gary Lightbody & Taylor Swift]
And right before your eyes
I'm achin'
No past, nowhere to hide
Just you and me
[Chorus: Gary Lightbody & Taylor Swift]
This is the last time I'm askin' you this
Put my name at the top of your list
This is the last time I'm askin' you why
You break my heart in the blink of an eye, eye, eye
[Bridge: Taylor Swift, Gary Lightbody, Gary Lightbody & Taylor Swift]
This is the last time you tell me I've got it wrong
This is the last time I say, "It's been you all along"
This is the last time I let you in my door
This is the last time, I won't hurt you anymore
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
[Chorus: Gary Lightbody & Taylor Swift, Taylor Swift, Gary Lightbody]
This is the last time I'm askin' you this
Put my name at the top of your list
This is the last time I'm askin' you why
You break my heart in the blink of an eye
This is the last time I'm askin' you this (This is the last time I'm askin' you this)
Put my name at the top of your list (Put my name at the top of your list)
This is the last time I'm askin' you why (This is the last time I'm askin' you why)
You break my heart in the blink of an eye (You break my heart)
[Outro: Gary Lightbody & Taylor Swift]
This is the last time I'm askin' you, last time I'm askin' you
Last time I'm askin' you this
This is the last time I'm askin' you, last time I'm askin' you
Last time I'm askin' you this
This is the last time I'm askin' you, last time I'm askin' you
Last time I'm askin' you this
This is the last time I'm askin' you, last time I'm askin' you
Last time I'm askin' you this

On a 2012 interview with NPR, Taylor said:
The idea was based on this experience I had with someone who was kind of this unreliable guy. You never know when he’s going to leave, you never know when he’s going to come back, but he always does come back. My visual for this song is, there’s a guy on h...
The song debuted at #66 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, the week ending November 26, 2021. It also marks the first appearance of both Swift and Gary Lightbody together on a song on the Hot 100, as the original song did not appear on the Hot 100.
“The Last Time” is a song that I wrote with Gary Lightbody, of Snow Patrol. I’ve always wanted to work with Snow Patrol, they’re my favourite band. This was a song that I wrote about something I had been going through. I picture a door and, on the outside of the door, standing outside in the cold, t...
We co-wrote with Taylor on the song The Last Time. And I had the privilege of singing on it too. I’m so proud of the song and delighted to revisit it. It is extraordinary what Taylor is doing with the new versions of her albums. A gargantuan feat that would consume the lives of any mortal musician....
