TwT: last kiss

I haven't really followed through with my new Tuesday tradition very well, but it's not because I don't believe in the cause (it's mostly because I've been busy putting food on the table). But, after spending the last hour watching old youtube videos (I really am busy, I swear) of my favorite artist, I decided it was about time I host my second semi-monthly/weekly/annually TwT event.

The song I'd like to share with you is tied with about seven other Taylor songs on my "Favorite Songs of All Time" list and it's called, "Last Kiss." It describes the best feelings he ever gave you. It describes his best characteristics. It describes those moments with him that are so vividly engraved in your mind. It describes the sacrifices you made for him. It describes the gut-wrenching feeling you had when he left. It describes how you still want him. It describes how he'll always be the one. It describes how bad you wish he still wanted you. It describes how, despite everything, you still wish him well.

If you're going through a breakup, this is the song for you. And if you're not, it's one heck of a soothing, slow, beautiful song to put you to sleep or calm your stressful day. Enjoy!

Last Kiss

Written by Taylor Swift

I still remember the look on your face

Lit through the darkness at 1:58

The words that you whispered

For just us to know

You told me you loved me

So why did you go away?

Away

I do recall now the smell of the rain

Fresh on the pavement

I ran off the plane

That July 9th

The beat of your heart

It jumps through your shirt

I can still feel your arms

But now I'll go sit on the floor

Wearing your clothes

All that I know is

I don't know how to be something you miss

I never thought we'd have a last kiss

Never imagined we'd end like this

Your name, forever the name on my lips

I do remember the swing of your step

The life of the party, you're showing off again

And I roll my eyes and then

You pull me in

I'm not much for dancing

But for you I did

Because I love your handshake, meeting my father

I love how you walk with your hands in your pockets

How you kissed me when I was in the middle of saying something

There's not a day I don't miss those rude interruptions

And I'll go sit on the floor

Wearing your clothes

All that I know is

I don't know how to be something you miss

Never thought we'd have a last kiss

Never imagined we'd end like this

Your name, forever the name on my lips

So I'll watch your life in pictures like I used to watch you sleep

And I feel you forget me like I used to feel you breathe

And I keep up with our old friends just to ask them how you are

Hope it's nice where you are

And I hope the sun shines

And it's a beautiful day

And something reminds you

You wish you had stayed

You can plan for a change in weather and time

But I never planned on you changing your mind

So I'll go sit on the floor

Wearing your clothes

All that I know is

I don't know how to be something you miss

Never thought we'd have a last kiss

Never imagined we'd end like this

Your name, forever the name on my lips

Just like our last kiss

Forever the name on my lips

Forever the name on my lips

Just like our last...


Ahh...what a GREAT song!! For those of you who want a good chuckle, this is pretty good:
