Rihanna - The Last Song Lyrics

Here we are, mid-air off of the cliff
Staring down at the end again
But then again maybe we're finally
On the road that's headed away
From all your complaining of hearing the same song
But baby we'll hear it when I'm gone

It's time to turn on the last song
The last song

What if you wasted love and our love in time disappeared
And the sad song ends up being the last song you'll ever hear?
It was ours but I'd do it again
Holding hands with my friend again

But then again maybe we gave our all
A song we'll never forget
Maybe let them play it, maybe it'll save the world
They gonna miss hearin' it when it's gone

But it's time to turn up the last song
The last song

What if we left every moment that we could spare
And the perfect song ends up being the last song you'll ever hear?
You'll never know when the songs gonna play
The last song you hear is the one you made
This song was beautiful that's why I started singing it

But this song is our song, it's playing 'til the end
Even if it's the last song

The last song
The last song

What if you wasted love and our love, our time disappeared
And the perfect song ends up being the last song you'll ever hear?

  Let's say the situation in the song is a relationship. I think Rihanna is trying to explain how one person in the relationship wants to leave because he/she is tired of the same routine. They don't want to take the time and fix things so the relationship becomes broken. Rihanna then says that what if they took the time and worked on the relationship? Then things would probably be alright and the love wouldn't have been wasted. Hence, the last song is what is or could've been of the relationship.

  what a beautiful song
  I should play it to my boyfriend
  
  What if we left every moment that we could spare
  And the perfect song ends up being the last song you'll ever hear?
  You'll never know when the songs gonna play
  The last song you hear is the one you made
  This song was beautiful that's why I started singing it
  
  But this song is our song, it's playing 'til the end
  Even if it's the last song
  
  The last song
  The last song
  
  What if you wasted love and our love, our time disappeared
  And the perfect song ends up being the last song you'll ever hear?

  I have only liked two songs that rihanna made: I hate how much I love you and take a bow. I heard russian roulette and thought it was a really cool song kinda eerie but still great. I borrowed her cd from the local library and I have been listening to it for the past 3 days nonstop. I commend rihanna for all of the shit has been going through and this cd shows her road through it all. This song is very beautiful and powerful that I cry everytime I hear it. It has given me the strength to do what I need to do and I dont fear about what may happen. It is truly the last perfect song! Congrats Rihanna!!! This song is deep as well as Cold Case Love!
