Last Time I Was Home Lyrics by Devon Gabriella
You’re looking different, darling
Know I’ve been gone a few weeks
Something in your face has changed
Cross-legged on the bedsheets
Where you just undressed me
Was that a year ago or was it yesterday?
I saw it coming, but it took you by surprise
Like I walked into a waiting room and told you someone died
Here we are and there it goes
Oh, I guess you never know
It’s the last time you’ll be leaving
‘Til the door’s already closed
Would’ve held you like a lover
And laughed like we were younger
Now, I’m sitting in this hotel room alone
And I don’t know the last time I was home
I’m playing New York City
The strangers and the buildings
Are watching my admit defeat (Are watching me admit defeat)
And if I just keep walking
I might never stop, ’cause
Facing you is worse than pulling all my teeth
I saw it coming, but it took you by surprise
And I knew that is was over, you wouldn’t look me in the eyes
Here we are and there it goes
Oh, I guess you never know
It’s the last time you’ll be leaving
‘Til the door’s already closed
Would’ve held you like a lover
And laughed like we were younger
Now, I’m sitting in this hotel room alone (Hotel room alone)
And I don’t know the last time I was home
I could sit here and pretend that I don’t what went wrong
That we were working up against some impossible odds
‘Cause who would wanna admit that they just fell out of love?
We fell out of love, I fell out of love
And I hate how long I stayed, I know I put you through hell
All the years I waited, hoping that time would tell
God, I spent so many hours just convincing myself
That you were perfect, and you were perfect
But you were perfect for somebody else
And there it goes
Oh, I guess you never know
It’s the last time you’ll be leaving
I once held you just like porcelain
You were made to break when I let you in
Now, I’m sitting in this hotel room alone
And I don’t know the last time I was home
Could come back but I won’t
Could come back but I won’t
