Try

(defvar my-window nil)
(defvar my-last-window nil)

(defun my-last-window ()
   (unless (or (window-minibuffer-p)
	      (eq (selected-window) my-window))
     (setq my-last-window my-window)
     (setq my-window (selected-window))))

(add-hook 'buffer-list-update-hook 'my-last-window)

(defun select-last-window ()
   (interactive)
   (when (and (window-live-p my-last-window)
	     (not (eq my-last-window (selected-window))))
     (select-window my-last-window)))
