Song Meaning
Fan interpretation: The narrator has upset his lover. They're giving him the silent treatment. He doesn't really understand why – or he's pretending he doesn't understand when in reality, he does – but he's promising it'll be the last time in desperation to keep his lover. It's like a prequel to the following songs about lost love.
Lyrics
I called you on the phone
But there's nobody home
I'm just watching the time go by
Well, I've been feeling sad
I've been making you mad
Well, now I'm feeling so sick inside
There's a hurricane
Or I'm going insane
I'm just sitting in this hotel room
So won't you please help me?
I'm in misery
I'm sorry what I ever did
And I promise that it will be the last time (it's gonna be the last time)
This is the last time (it's gonna be the last time)
This is the last time (it's gonna be the last time)
This is the last time (it's gonna be the last time)
I'll give you all my blood
Though it's a waste of time
If it's not good enough
You're always on my mind
I called you on the phone
But there's nobody home
I'm just watching the time go by
Well, I've been feeling sad
I've been making you mad
Well, now I'm feeling so sick inside
There's a hurricane
Or I'm going insane
I'm just sitting in this hotel room
So won't you please help me?
I'm in misery
I'm sorry what I ever did
And I promise that it'll be the last time (it's gonna be the last time)
This is the last time (it's gonna be the last time)
This is the last time (it's gonna be the last time)
This is the last time (it's gonna be the last time)
This is the last time (it's gonna be the last time)
This is the last time (it's gonna be the last time)
This is the last time (it's gonna be the last time)
This is the last time (it's gonna be the last time)
But there's nobody home
I'm just watching the time go by
Well, I've been feeling sad
I've been making you mad
Well, now I'm feeling so sick inside
There's a hurricane
Or I'm going insane
I'm just sitting in this hotel room
So won't you please help me?
I'm in misery
I'm sorry what I ever did
And I promise that it will be the last time (it's gonna be the last time)
This is the last time (it's gonna be the last time)
This is the last time (it's gonna be the last time)
This is the last time (it's gonna be the last time)
I'll give you all my blood
Though it's a waste of time
If it's not good enough
You're always on my mind
I called you on the phone
But there's nobody home
I'm just watching the time go by
Well, I've been feeling sad
I've been making you mad
Well, now I'm feeling so sick inside
There's a hurricane
Or I'm going insane
I'm just sitting in this hotel room
So won't you please help me?
I'm in misery
I'm sorry what I ever did
And I promise that it'll be the last time (it's gonna be the last time)
This is the last time (it's gonna be the last time)
This is the last time (it's gonna be the last time)
This is the last time (it's gonna be the last time)
This is the last time (it's gonna be the last time)
This is the last time (it's gonna be the last time)
This is the last time (it's gonna be the last time)
This is the last time (it's gonna be the last time)
