about

"The Last Time / Jamás te Olvidaré" is tango-inspired duet about a couple looking back on an ephemeral relationship, contemplating what might have been. The juxtaposition of Mattea's English lyrics with Pablo Antón's Spanish lyrics (sung by JChris) is dramatic, intense, and tinged with sadness.

lyrics

MATTEA:
If you'd know this was the last time
Would you have ever closed the door
Had the strength to walk away from here
Knowing there'd be no more
If you'd know this was the last kiss
Would you have ever walked away
If you'd know this was the last time
We'd ever be this way

JCHRIS:
Si supiera que jamás te
Vería de nuevo sonreír
Me hubiera quedado afuera
Y sin moverme un poco más
Si supiera que ya nunca
Podría jamás volverte a ver
Te hubiera dicho que te amo
Y que jamás te olvidaré

MATTEA:
Bittersweet memories are all that remain
Was it real or just a dream

JCHRIS:
Jamás te olvidaré

MATTEA / JCHRIS:
If you'd known there'd be no next time / Por qué no puedes ver
What do you think you would have said / Que estamos mejor así
Would you have told me all the secrets / Hay tantas cosas que
That overwhelm your head / No sé cómo explicar
We're never guaranteed tomorrow / No soy el mismo, y solo quiero
We're barely guaranteed today / Quiero que sepas
I would have told you that I loved you / Que a pesar de todo te amo
If I'd had another day / Y que jamás te olvidaré
