Last Time It Was

John Mastandrea 

The last time it was playing 

The years were short and your joy radiated 


The last time we were playing 

We had so much energy 


The last time we were together 

Your love was inordinate 


The last time it plays 

Your time is short and you struggle finding joy 


The last time we play 

You can barely express yourself 


The last time together 

Your love stays the same.
