ONCE LAST TIME

Andy Chan

Sometimes, the hardest part of love isn’t saying hello—it’s knowing exactly when to say goodbye. “Once Last Time” (ຄັ້ງສຸດທ້າຍ) is a song born from that fragile, suspended moment before two paths diverge forever. It captures the heavy, beautiful weight of a final embrace, where every heartbeat, every touch, and every breath feels like a desperate attempt to memorize someone before they become a memory.

This ballad is a raw exploration of that bittersweet surrender—the decision to let go even when your heart is begging to stay. Whether you are listening to the emotional depth of the Lao original or simply read English translation along, this song is dedicated to anyone who has ever had to walk away from a love that still felt like home. It is a tribute to the beautiful, painful finality of being perfectly together, one last time.

ຊື່ເພງ: ຄັ້ງສຸດທ້າຍ

ແສງໄຟໃນຫ້ອງເລີ່ມລະລາຍຫາຍໄປ
ເຫຼືອພຽງເຮົາສອງຄົນ ໃນຄວາມງຽບເຫງົາທີ່ບາດເຈັບ
ລົມຫາຍໃຈທີ່ປະສານກັນ… ກໍາລັງຈະສິ້ນສຸດລົງ
ຂ້ອຍກໍາລັງຈົດຈໍາທຸກສຳຜັດ, ທຸກຄວາມອົບອຸ່ນຂອງເຈົ້າ
ໃຫ້ຝັງເລິກລົງໄປໃນຫົວໃຈ ທີ່ກໍາລັງຈະແຕກສະຫຼາຍ.

ມືຂອງເຈົ້າຍັງຈັບມືຂ້ອຍໄວ້ແໜ້ນ
ຄືກັບຢາກຢຸດເວລາ ບໍ່ໃຫ້ມັນໝູ່ນຕໍ່ໄປ
ແຕ່ຄວາມເປັນຈິງ ມັນກໍຮ້າຍກາດເກີນກວ່າຈະຝືນ
ເຮົາຕັດສິນໃຈແລ້ວ… ທີ່ຈະໄປຄົນລະທາງ.

ກອດນີ້… ຂໍໃຫ້ມັນເປັນກອດທີ່ດົນທີ່ສຸດ
ຈູບນີ້… ຂໍໃຫ້ມັນເປັນຈູບທີ່ຝັງໃຈຕະຫຼອດໄປ
ຮ່າງກາຍຂອງເຈົ້າທີ່ຂ້ອຍກອດໄວ້… ມັນຈະເປັນຄັ້ງສຸດທ້າຍ
ທີ່ຂ້ອຍຈະໄດ້ຮູ້ສຶກເຖິງຄວາມຮັກຂອງເຈົ້າ
ເຮົາຮັກກັນຈົນວິນາທີສຸດທ້າຍ
ກ່ອນທີ່ມື້ໃໝ່ຈະພາເຮົາໄປສູ່ໂລກທີ່ບໍ່ມີກັນແລະກັນ.

ຄວາມຮັກທີ່ຜ່ານມາ ມັນແສນງາມເກີນກວ່າຈະລືມ
ແຕ່ການຈາກລາຄັ້ງນີ້… ມັນເຈັບປວດເກີນກວ່າຈະອະທິບາຍ
ທຸກຮອຍຍິ້ມ, ທຸກຮອຍນໍ້າຕາ ທີ່ເຮົາເຄີຍມີໃຫ້ກັນ
ຈະກາຍເປັນພຽງຄວາມຊົງຈໍາ… ທີ່ຄົງຢູ່ຕະຫຼອດໄປ.

ຢ່າຟ້າວປ່ອຍມື… ຂໍອີກໜ້ອຍໜຶ່ງໄດ້ບໍ່?
ໃຫ້ຫົວໃຈໄດ້ຈົດຈໍາສຽງຫົວໃຈຂອງເຈົ້າ
ເຖິງວັນນີ້ເຮົາຕ້ອງຈາກ… ແຕ່ຂ້ອຍຈະບໍ່ມີວັນລືມ
ຄວາມອົບອຸ່ນທີ່ເຈົ້າເຄີຍໃຫ້… ໃນວິນາທີທີ່ເຮົາແຍກທາງ.

(ຈູບສຸດທ້າຍ…)
(ກອດສຸດທ້າຍ…)
ຕັ້ງແຕ່ນີ້ໄປ… ເຮົາຈະໃຊ້ຊີວິດໃນໂລກຂອງໃຜຂອງມັນ
ຕະຫຼອດໄປ…
ລາແລ້ວ… ທີ່ຮັກຂອງຂ້ອຍ.

The light in the room begins to fade away
Leaving just the two of us in this wounded silence
Our intertwined breaths are coming to an end
I am holding onto every touch, every warmth of yours
Embedding it deep inside a breaking heart.

Your hands still grip mine so tightly
As if trying to stop time from moving forward
But reality is far too cruel to fight against
We have finally chosen to walk our separate paths.

Let this embrace be the longest one
Let this kiss be etched in my soul forever
The body of yours that I hold in my arms will be the very last time
That I will ever feel your love
We will love each other until the final second
Before a new day leads us to a world without one another.

Our past love was far too beautiful to forget
Yet this parting is too painful for words
Every smile and every tear we shared with one another
Will fade into a memory that stays forever.

Don’t let go just yet… can we have just a little longer?
Let my heart memorize the sound of your heartbeat
Even though we must part today, I will never forget
The warmth you once gave in the second we said goodbye.

(One final kiss…)
(One last embrace…)
From this moment on, we will live in our own separate worlds
Forever…
Farewell, my love.
