| I'm so glad you made time to see me | |||||||
| How's life? Tell me, how's your family? | |||||||
| I haven't seen them in a while | |||||||
| You've been good, busier than ever | |||||||
| We small talk, work and the weather | |||||||
| Your guard is up, and I know why | |||||||
| Because the last time you saw me | |||||||
| Is still burned in the back of your mind | |||||||
| You gave me roses, and I left them there to die | |||||||
| So this is me swallowing my pride | |||||||
| Standing in front of you, saying I'm sorry for that night | |||||||
| And I go back to December all the time | |||||||
| It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you | |||||||
| Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine | |||||||
| I go back to December, turn around and make it alright | |||||||
| I go back to December all the time | |||||||
| These days, I haven't been sleeping | |||||||
| Staying up, playing back myself leaving | |||||||
| When your birthday passed, and I didn't call | |||||||
| Then I think about summer, all the beautiful times | |||||||
| I watched you laughing from the passenger side | |||||||
| And realized I loved you in the fall | |||||||
| And then the cold came, the dark days | |||||||
| When fear crept into my mind | |||||||
| You gave me all your love, and all I gave you was goodbye | |||||||
| So this is me swallowing my pride | |||||||
| Standing in front of you, saying I'm sorry for that night | |||||||
| And I go back to December all the time | |||||||
| It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you | |||||||
| Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine | |||||||
| I go back to December, turn around and change my own mind | |||||||
| I go back to December all the time | |||||||
| I miss your tan skin, your sweet smile | |||||||
| So good to me, so right | |||||||
| And how you held me in your arms that September night | |||||||
| The first time you ever saw me cry | |||||||
| Maybe this is wishful thinking | |||||||
| Probably mindless dreaming | |||||||
| But if we loved again, I swear I'd love you right | |||||||
| I'd go back in time and change it, but I can't | |||||||
| So if the chain is on your door, I understand | |||||||
| This is me swallowing my pride | |||||||
| Standing in front of you, saying I'm sorry for that night | |||||||
| And I go back to December | |||||||
| It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you | |||||||
| Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine | |||||||
| I go back to December, turn around and make it alright | |||||||
| I go back to December, turn around and change my own mind I go back to December, all the time I would like to go back to december...if i can ♥ | |||||||
