“For the Last Time” — One Direction (Leaked Lyrics)
Rumored Charity Single for Liam Payne
[Verse 1 – Harry Styles]
I still see your name in the messages we sent
Frozen in the glow of the words we never meant
You were the steady when the world went wrong
Now I’m singing solo, but you’re still my song
[Verse 2 – Niall Horan]
Woke up today, thought I heard you laugh
A shadow of you in the mirror glass
Tried to write it down, but the ink won’t dry
You were always here — now I don’t know why
[Pre-Chorus – Louis Tomlinson]
You said, “Boys, we’ll be legends when we’re grey”
But no one told me legends fade away
[Chorus – All]
So we’ll sing it for the last time
Let the sky hear your name
Every note we ever held
Now echoes in the rain
You’re a light we couldn’t hold
But you burned so bright
This is for you, Liam—
For the last time
[Verse 3 – Zayn Malik]
Did you find peace where the silence grows?
Did you dance through the dark like the Liam we know?
I still wear your jacket when the nights get cold
And pretend you’re just out there on the road
[Bridge – Harry & Zayn]
We were five against the world, hearts like fire
Now it’s four and a shadow, reaching higher
You’re the verse we’ll never rewrite
But you made it all feel right
[Final Chorus – All + Choir]
So we’ll sing it for the last time
Let the stars spell your name
From the stages to the heavens
You’ll never fade away
You’re a love we couldn’t lose
Though you slipped through time
This is for you, Liam
For the last time
All proceeds from the rumored single are expected to go to a mental health and youth arts foundation launched in Liam’s honor, tentatively named “The LP Project.”
