The Last Time I Was With You

Start

Verse 1: Soft falsetto, breathy vocals

Ooh, I still smell your perfume on my skin

Like a scar that never fades within

Ooh, I see your face in the strangers I meet

But none of them haunt me the way that you did

Pre-Chorus: Vocal runs, atmospheric pads, emotional build-up

You know what I'm thinkin', I see it in your eyes (Oh-oh)

You hate that you need me, hate that it's a lie (Oh-oh)

You’re scared to be lonely, I’m scared to let go (Ooh, ooh)

Every touch was poison, but I needed the dose

Chorus: Echoes, synths, deep bass, reverb-heavy vocals

The last time I was with you (Ooh, yeah)

I swore that I'd forget you (Oh-oh-oh)

But the devil in my mind

Keeps whispering your name at night (Ooh, yeah)

The last time I was with you (With you, with you)

Felt like drowning in the truth (Oh-oh)

Now every breath I take feels cursed

And I still see you in the hurt (Ooh, ooh, ooh)

Verse 2: Confessional tone, moody synths, light percussion

Took a cab to your street last night (Oh-oh)

Didn't knock, just stared at the light (Ooh, ooh)

Wondered if someone else was inside (Oh-oh)

Wondered if he's holding you right (Ooh, ooh, yeah)

Pre-Chorus: Vocal runs, atmospheric pads, more intensity, ad-libs

You know what I'm thinkin', I see it in your eyes (Oh-oh)

You hate that you miss me, hate that I survived (Ooh, yeah)

I tried to erase you with liquor and sin (Oh-oh)

But even in strangers, I find you again (Ooh, ooh, ooh)

Chorus: Echoes, synths, deep bass, layered harmonies

The last time I was with you (Ooh, ooh, ooh)

I swore that I'd forget you (Forget you)

But the devil in my mind

Keeps whispering your name at night (Oh-oh, yeah)

The last time I was with you (With you, with you)

Felt like drowning in the truth (Oh-oh)

Now every breath I take feels cursed (Ooh)

And I still see you in the hurt

Bridge: Soft falsetto, moody, spacey echoes, vocal reverb

I would die for you, lie for you (Ooh, ooh)

Break myself just to feel you move (Oh-oh)

But I know that it's not enough (No, no, no)

Love like ours was never love

Chorus: Echoes, synths, deep bass, emotional climax

The last time I was with you (Ooh, yeah)

I swore that I'd forget you (Oh-oh)

But the ghost of what we were

Still lingers in my every word (Oh-oh, yeah)

The last time I was with you (With you, with you)

Felt like drowning in the truth (Oh-oh)

Now every breath I take feels cursed (Ooh)

And I still see you in the hurt (Ooh, yeah)

Instrumental Interlude

Outro: Airy falsetto, fading synths, melancholic tone

Ooh, I still smell your perfume on my skin (Oh-oh, yeah)

Like a scar that never fades within (Ooh, ooh)
